102.18.5 2 The bidder shall certify that all the specified goods or products for which this bid was solicited are
manufactured, assembled or produced in the USA. If there are any exceptions, the bidder shall submit a list of the exceptions on company letterhead, signed by the bidder and attached to the inside of the bid submitted. The list shall include the pay item number and the location where the item is manufactured. The bidder shall identify any of the exceptions in the list that are specified goods or products that are treated as manufactured, assembled or produced in the USA under an existing treaty, law, agreement or regulation of the USA regarding export/import restrictions and international trade.
102.18.5 3 The bidder shall notify the contact listed in the Request for Bid of any specified goods or products
that cannot be manufactured, assembled or produced in the USA in sufficient quantities or in time to meet the contract specifications.
102.18.5 4 The bidder shall certify that the bid complies with all provisions of Section 34.350 et seq RSMo.
102.19 Preference for Missouri Products. By virtue of statutory authority, a preference will be given, on
projects other than federal aid projects, to material, products, supplies, provisions and all other articles produced, manufactured, made or grown within the State of Missouri, where same are of a suitable character and can be obtained at reasonable market prices in the state and are of a quality suited to the purpose intended and can be secured without additional cost over foreign products or products of other states. 33SECTION 103 AWARD AND EXECUTION OF CONTRACT 103.1 Consideration of Bids. After bids are opened and the bid totals read, the bids will be compared on the basis of the summation of the products of the approximate quantities shown in the bid schedule multiplied by the unit bid prices. The results of such comparisons will be immediately available to the public. 103.2 Award of Contract. 103.2.1 The contract will be awarded by the Commission to the lowest responsible bidder as soon as practical after the opening of the bids. The responsibility of the contractor will be determined by the Commission based on, but not limited to, previous work, financial standing and record for the payment of the contractor’s obligations. No contract will be executed by the Commission unless the contractor has on file with the Commission a valid contractor questionnaire in accordance with Sec 102.2. The successful bidder will be notified by letter mailed to the address shown on the bid that the bid has been accepted and the contract has been awarded. 103.2.2 The Commission may make a contingent award to the second lowest responsible bidder. If the low bidder fails to execute the contract in accordance with this section, the contract will be offered to the second lowest responsible bidder in accordance with the contingent award made by the Commission within 25 days after the original award date. The second low bidder shall then be bound by the same requirements as specified for the lowest responsible bidder. The Notice to Proceed may be extended by the number of days between the original Commission award and the day the contract has been mailed to the second lowest responsible bidder. If the contract time for completion of the work is set solely by completion date, then the completion date may be extended by the number of days between the original Commission award and the day the contract was mailed to the second lowest responsible bidder. The new contract will be adjusted to reflect these changes, if appropriate. 103.2.2.1 If the second low bidder is not able to perform the work at the unit prices bid by the second low bidder due solely to the fact that the low bidder is unable to perform as a subcontractor in accordance with Sec 103.6, and the second low bidder based its bid upon an offer by the low bidder to perform subcontract work for the second low bidder, the second low bidder will not be required to forfeit its bid bond, providing the second low bidder submits to the Commission proper documentation that its bid was based on the low bidder’s quote. Proper documentation shall include, but is not limited to, a letter to the Commission describing the work that was to be performed by the low bidder as a subcontractor, all quotes the contractor received and all documentation for the work in question. 103.2.2.2 When the second low bidder is required to execute the contract and the low bidder was a DBE firm that was identified on the second low bidder’s Identification of Participating DBE’s, the second low bidder shall attempt to replace the low bidder with another DBE firm. If the second low bidder is unsuccessful in attaining another DBE firm for that work, the second low bidder shall certify that a good faith effort was made in accordance with 49 CFR 26.53. The DBE goal will be adjusted accordingly. 103.2.3 When the tabulated lowest bids are equal in all respects, including price, the successful bidder will be determined by a formal drawing of lot limited to the tied bidders. Tied bidders will be notified of the location and time of the drawing and have the opportunity to attend, but attendance will not be required. 103.2.4 Alternate Bids. In making the award, if alternate bids have been requested, that alternate that will be in the best interest of the Commission will be used. 103.2.5 Federal Concurrence. If the USA or any agency thereof is paying all or a portion of the cost of construction of the project, the award made by the Commission will be tentative until proper federal concurrence therein has been received. 103.3 Return of Bid Guaranty. The bid guaranty, whether check or bid bond, of the low bidder will be retained until the contract has been executed by the successful bidder, all insurance requirements have been met and a satisfactory contract bond furnished. The check of the low bidder will then be returned. The bid guaranty of the second low bidder will be returned when the Commission has determined that award will not be made to that firm. If errors or irregularities appear in the bid of either of the two lowest bidders that creates doubt as to the status of such a bid, the bid guaranties of other bidders may be retained. When the two lowest bidders have been definitely established, the checks of the other bidders will be returned. Any bid bond furnished as a bid guaranty 34will be returned only upon request of the bidder furnishing the bid bond. If an award is not made, all checks will be returned to the bidders. 103.4 Contract Bond Required. 103.4.1 The successful bidder shall, at the time of the execution of the contract, furnish a contract bond in a sum equal to the contract price. The bond shall be to the State of Missouri, in a form and with surety or sureties acceptable to the Commission, to ensure the proper and prompt completion of the work in accordance with the provisions of the contract, the contractor’s compliance with all of the terms and conditions of the contract, all obligations on the contractor’s part to be performed and payment of all obligations to the Commission by the contractor, including any indebtedness, liquidated or unliquidated, for any reason relating to or arising from the contract, and to ensure payment for all labor performed and material consumed or used in the work. The bond, if executed by a surety that is a corporation organized in a state other than Missouri, shall be signed by an agent or broker licensed by the Missouri Department of Insurance. All bids shall be submitted on the basis of furnishing a contract bond executed by an approved surety or sureties, as herein set out. The surety’s liability under the contract bond and contract shall not be limited to the penal sum as set forth in the contract bond. The surety shall be liable and responsible to the Commission for the contractor’s entire performance and of all obligations arising under or from the contract, which shall include, but is not limited to any change orders issued under the contract that increase the cost of the contract. 103.4.2 Certificate of Authority. Any surety company that proposes to execute a bond as required by the contract shall have on file with or furnish to the Commission a certified copy of the surety’s certificate of authority to transact business in the State of Missouri. 103.4.3 Surety Acceptability. A surety will be acceptable to the Commission if the surety is listed in the current United States Department of the Treasury, Fiscal Service, Department Circular 570, Companies Holding Certificates of Authority as Acceptable Sureties on Federal Bonds and as Acceptable Reinsuring Companies. Individual contract bonds may not be in excess of the underwriting limitation listed in the circular. 103.5 Execution of Contract. The individual, partnership, corporation or joint venturer awarded the contract shall return the prescribed copies of the contract and bond, properly executed, to the office of the Commission within 15 days after the unexecuted contract has been mailed to the bidder. No bid shall be considered binding upon the Commission until the contract has been awarded by the Commission, and until the successful bidder has executed and returned the contract and a satisfactory bond. No contract will be effective until the contract has been executed by all parties. 103.6 Failure to Execute Contract. Failure to execute the contract or to file an acceptable contract bond within 15 days after the unexecuted contract has been mailed to the bidder will be just cause for the cancellation of the award and the forfeiture of the bid guaranty. A bidder failing to file an acceptable bid or contract bond from an approved surety or failing to execute the contract within the time provided resulting in a cancellation of the award to that bidder, disqualifies that bidder, and any other firm having common ownership or control with that bidder, from performing any work on the Commission project or projects that are the subject of that bid, as a prime contractor, a subcontractor or a supplier. 35SECTION 104 SCOPE OF WORK 104.1 Intent of Contract. The contractor shall complete the work described and furnish all resources required to complete the work under the contract. 104.2 Differing Site Conditions. If differing site conditions are encountered during the progress of the work, the discovering party shall promptly notify the other party in accordance with Sec 104.4. No further disturbance of the site or performance of the affected work shall be done after the alleged differing site conditions are noted, unless otherwise directed in writing by the engineer. 104.2.1 Upon written notification, the engineer will investigate the conditions, and if it is determined that the conditions materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the cost or time required for the performance of any work under the contract, an adjustment, excluding anticipated profits, will be made and the contract modified in writing accordingly. The engineer will notify the contractor whether or not an adjustment of the contract is warranted. 104.2.2 No contract adjustment that results in a benefit to the contractor will be allowed unless the contractor has provided the required written notice as specified in Sec 104.4. 104.2.3 No contract adjustment will be allowed under this section for any effects caused on unchanged work. 104.2.4 Payment will be determined in accordance with Sec 109.4 and adjustments in contract time will be determined in accordance with Sec 108.14. 104.3 Changes in the Work. When considered necessary to satisfactorily complete the project, the engineer reserves the right to provide written notice to the contractor, at any time during the contract, to change quantities or make other alterations for which there are no provisions included in the contract. Such changes in quantities and alterations in the work will not invalidate the contract, require consent of the surety, nor release the contract surety, and the contractor agrees to perform the work as altered. Alterations of plans or of the nature of the work will not involve work beyond the termini of the proposed construction, except as may be necessary to satisfactorily complete the project. 104.3.1 If the alterations or changes in quantities do not cause a significant change in the work to be performed under the contract, payment for the altered work will be determined in accordance with Sec 109.3 for all work for which a contract unit price exists, and Sec 109.4 for all other work. The basis for the adjustment for work for which no unit price exists shall be agreed upon prior to the performance of the work. If a basis cannot be agreed upon, then an adjustment will be made either for or against the contractor in such amount as the engineer may determine to be fair and equitable. If the directed changes require additional time to complete the contract, adjustments in the contract time will be determined in accordance with Sec 108.7. 104.3.2 If the alterations or changes in quantities cause significant change in the work under the contract as defined in Sec 101, an adjustment will be made to the contract. This adjustment will occur whether such alterations or changes are in themselves a significant change in the work or by affecting other work, causing such other work to become significantly different. Payment will be determined in accordance with Sec 109.3 or Sec 109.4. The basis for the adjustment shall be agreed upon prior to the performance of the work. If a basis cannot be agreed upon, then an adjustment will be made either for or against the contractor in such amount as the engineer may determine to be fair and equitable. If the directed changes require additional time to complete the contract, adjustments in the contract time will be determined in accordance with Secs 108.7 or 108.14, as appropriate. 104.4 Notification of Differing Site Conditions and Changes in the Work. The contractor shall promptly notify the engineer of alleged changes to the contract due to differing site conditions, altered work beyond the scope of the contract, or actions taken by MoDOT that changed the contract terms and conditions. Within five business days of the date the alleged change or action was noted, the contractor shall provide the following information to the engineer in writing:
104.10 Mailboxes, Signs and Markers.
104.10.1 Mailboxes. Mailboxes within the limits of the project that will interfere with operations shall be
removed by the contractor before work is begun. Mailboxes shall be set temporarily where the mailbox will be accessible to both the carrier and the patron, and shall be properly reset by the contractor at designated locations before final acceptance of the work by the Commission. Mailboxes damaged by the contractor shall be replaced by the contractor at the contractor’s expense. All mailbox supports set by the contractor shall be in accordance with AASHTO guidelines. Mailboxes may be reset by the contractor using only approved supports furnished 40either by the postal patron or by the engineer. No direct payment will be made for the removal, relocation or replacement of mailboxes or supports.
104.10.2 Signs and Markers. Signs and markers within the limits of the project that will interfere with
operations shall be removed by the contractor before work is begun. All such signs and markers required for safe control and guidance of traffic shall be temporarily reset, readily visible to traffic, and shall be maintained in a satisfactory condition. If the nature of the work makes temporary relocation impractical, the signs shall be placed on movable supports and maintained in accordance with Sec 616. Stop and yield signs at intersecting roadways shall be maintained where signs are readily visible to traffic at all times. Other individual signs may be moved aside only when signs interfere with actual operations. All required signs and markers shall be properly located to control traffic at all times. Final removal of signs and markers will be permitted only when permanent signs and markers have been installed. All signs and markers will remain the property of the Commission and shall, after final removal, be delivered without damage to locations within the project limits as directed by the engineer. No direct payment will be made for removal, relocation, temporary supports, maintenance or final removal and delivery of signs and markers.
104.10.3 Right of Way Markers and Plaques. All right of way marker posts or markers damaged by the
contractor’s operations shall be replaced at the contractors’ expense, and installed in accordance with Sec 602 and the standard drawings. Replacements for damaged right of way marker plaques will be furnished by the Commission.
104.11 Final Clean Up.
104.11.1 Before final acceptance, the contractor shall restore to a condition equal to or better than that existing
prior to construction all property, both public and private, within, adjacent to and beyond the limits of construction that have been disturbed or damaged by prosecution of the work. Restoration work shall be at the contractor’s expense.
104.11.2 When specified in the contract, the contractor shall open and clean all existing channels and culverts
from all excess mud or silt, drift, brush or debris of any kind. Any material excavated in cleaning existing channels will be paid for as roadway excavation of like classification. Any material excavated in cleaning out culverts that are used in place will be paid for at the contract price per each structure. However, only the initial excavation will be paid for, and any subsequent cleaning required prior to final acceptance shall be at the contractor’s expense.
104.12 Requirements for Projects Involving Work On Railroad Right of Way.
104.12.1 All work on, over or under railroad right of way shall be performed by the contractor without damage
to the facilities and property of the railroad or the railroad’s lessees, and in strict observance of requirements of the engineer and railroad for the safety of railroad property and operations. The contractor shall maintain the existing or proposed depth and section of the ditches along the tracks of railroads through the limits of construction. Any sediment resulting from new construction shall be promptly removed.
104.12.2 The contractor shall indemnify the railroad for any loss or damage to the railroad property, right of
way, tracks and other facilities, hereafter referred to as property, caused by acts or omissions of the contractor, or any of the contractor’s subcontractors, in performing work on a project, whether on, over, under or in the vicinity of railroad property. In the event the contractor fails to restore railroad property immediately to a condition acceptable to the railroad when any such loss or damage to railroad property is called to the contractor’s attention by the railroad, then the railroad may perform such corrective work at the contractor’s cost.
104.12.3 Prior to beginning any work on, over or under railroad right of way, the contractor shall furnish to the
railroad’s engineer evidence of “Commercial Auto Liability Insurance,” “Commercial General Liability Insurance” and “Railroad Protective Liability Insurance” in accordance with the contract documents and special provisions, which will establish the limits of each type of insurance.
104.12.4 The term “loss or damage” as used in Sec 104.12 will include, but not be limited to, the erosion and
silting of, water damage to, and the accidental or intentional placing or dropping of objects on railroad property. 41104.12.5 Work performed on, over or under railroad right of way will be subject to the inspection of railroad representatives.
104.12.6 The Commission will make provisions for any temporary removal of railroad or railroad lessees’
facilities that are to be moved.
104.12.7 The contractor shall in no way hold the Commission liable for delay caused by securing the railroad
company’s approval of construction features involved in placing any grade separation structure, the removal of any structures over the railroad’s right of way, shoring plans that could affect the railroad’s facilities or operation or any changes from the design plans that appear desirable during construction.
104.12.8 Construction requirements for projects involving work upon railroad right of way will be as follows.
104.12.8 1 Fiber optic, communications, control systems and other types of cable may be buried on railroad
property. Before beginning work, the contractor shall contact the railroad to determine if cable systems are buried on the railroad property to be used by the contractor.

provisions.
104.12.8 6 When performing work near the railroad tracks, the contractor shall, at the end of each work day,
inspect the track area and clean up any debris. When the project is completed, the contractor shall remove any debris or material dropped on the railroad from the railroad right of way.
104.12.9 Requirements for projects involving rates of pay and other related costs for protective services required
by the railroad will be as follows.
104.12.9 1 The services of one track foreman or other railroad employees qualified to protect railroad operations
in accordance with railroad’s rules, will be required during any construction operations involving direct interference with railroad tracks or traffic, the fouling of railroad operating clearances or reasonable probability of accidental hazard to railroad traffic. Services of additional railroad personnel for flagging protection will be required whenever such protection is needed when required by the railroad’s authorized railroad representative.
104.12.9 2 The rate of pay per hour for each flagger shall be the prevailing hourly rate for the class of employee
used in accordance with labor agreements and schedules in effect at the time the work is performed.
104.12.9 3 One and one-half times current hourly rate shall be paid for overtime, Saturdays and Sundays. Two
and one-half times current hourly rate shall be paid for holidays.
104.12.9 4 Wage rates are subject to change at any time by law or by agreement between the railroad and
railroad employees, and may be retroactive as a result of negotiations or a ruling of an authorized governmental agency. Additional charges, such as labor surcharges, are also subject to change. If the wage rates or additional charges are changed, the contractor shall pay on the basis of the new rates and new charges. 42104.12.10 Requirements for projects involving reimbursement for work upon railroad right of way will be as follows.
104.12.10 1 The contractor shall reimburse the railroad for all costs of installation, maintenance and removal of
any temporary crossings.
104.12.10 2 The contractor shall reimburse the railroad for all costs of protective services, such as flaggers,
required by the railroad for the protection of railroad property and operations in accordance with Sec 104.12.9. All such costs shall be determined on the basis of rates of pay and other related costs actually in existence at the time protective services are furnished. Payments will be made by deduction of funds from the contractor’s periodic progress payments.
104.12.10 2.1 Reimbursement shall cover the full eight hour day during which any flagger is furnished, unless
the flagger can be assigned to other railroad work during a portion of such day, in which event reimbursement will not be required for the portion of the day during which the flagger is engaged in other work.
104.12.10 2.2 Reimbursement will be required for any day not actually worked by said flagger following
assignment to work on the project for which the railroad is required to pay the flagger and that could not reasonably be avoided by the railroad by assignment of such flagger to other work, even though the contractor may not be working during such time.
104.12.10 3 The contractor shall reimburse travel expenses to the railroad in addition to the rate of pay indicated
in Sec 104.12.9.
104.12.10 4 The railroad shall have the right to bring an action directly against the contractor to recover any loss

any public or privately-owned utility facility, the respective representatives shall have the right to inspect the work.
105.10.5 Inspections authorized in Secs 105.10.3 and 105.10.4 will not make any of these agencies a party to the
contract or affect the rights of the parties to the contract. 47105.10.6 Adequate provisions for lighting, meeting the prior approval from the engineer, shall be provided by the contractor to permit satisfactory construction and inspection of all work done and material produced.
105.10.7 Final Inspection. Upon presumptive completion of the entire project, the engineer will make an
inspection. If all construction contemplated by the contract has been completed to the engineer’s satisfaction, that inspection will constitute the final inspection. The engineer will make the acceptance for maintenance upon completion of the final inspection. The engineer will notify the contractor in writing of acceptance for maintenance as of the date of the final inspection, with the exception of items covered by item specific performance bonds. Final acceptance will take place within a maximum of 30 days of receipt of final documentation from the contractor.
105.10.7 1 Following the final inspection, the contractor, subcontractors and suppliers will be relieved of any
new or additional liability to third parties for personal injury, death or property damages which may be alleged to result from the design or construction of the work, unless additional work on the right of way will be required by the engineer.
105.10.7 2 Nothing in Sec 105.10.7 shall be deemed to excuse the contractor of liability or responsibility for any
personal injury, death or property damages which may have occurred prior to the final inspection of the work.
105.11 Unauthorized and Defective Work.
105.11.1 All changes in the work or departures from the plans, except those due to reclassification of excavation
material, will be considered unauthorized and at the contractor’s expense unless, before proceeding with the work, the contractor has a copy of an order record signed by the engineer, or a change order signed by all parties whose signatures are provided for, except the federal engineer. These forms will contain complete detailed instructions regarding the proposed changes. Any departure from the instructions contained in such a written order will be considered unauthorized.
105.11.2 The engineer may order unauthorized work removed and replaced at the contractor’s expense.
105.11.3 All construction and materials that have been rejected or declared unsatisfactory shall be remedied or
removed and replaced in an acceptable manner by the contractor at the contractor’s expense.

within the limits of the contract, will be subject to all requirements of this section, and a special permit will be required.
105.12.2 Track or crawler-type equipment having a gross weight of 40,000 pounds or less, evenly distributed
over the treads, may be moved over bridges not posted for lesser loads or over rigid-type pavements without special permits. Such equipment having a gross weight in excess of 40,000 pounds shall have a special permit before moving. Crawler-type equipment having a gross weight in excess of 75,000 pounds will not be permitted on bridges or rigid type pavements unless authorized by the engineer.
105.12.3 Track or crawler-type equipment that is subject to unequal distribution of weight, such as cranes and
paving mixers and which have a gross weight in excess of 18,000 pounds but less than 40,000 pounds , may be operated upon bridges not posted for lesser loads and rigid type pavements, provided special precautions satisfactory to the engineer are taken to distribute the weight evenly over the treads. Such equipment in excess of 40,000 pounds will require a special permit from the Commission.
105.12.4 The contractor shall not move or operate any type of equipment of such weight or so loaded that the
equipment will cause damage to highway facilities either being constructed or in existence. Equipment and vehicles with steel lugs will not be permitted to operate directly on bridges or pavements at any time.
105.12.5 When it is required that material from roadway or borrow excavation be hauled across existing
pavement, the contractor may move the material across the pavement with equipment that results in overweight loading, provided the following requirements are met at the contractor’s expense:
105.12.6 The contractor shall not store or stockpile any materials on a bridge without approval from the
engineer.
105.12.7 Nothing contained herein or in any special permit will relieve the contractor of liability for any damage
caused to highway facilities from the movement or operation of equipment and vehicles over the highway system.
105.13 Maintenance of the Work. The contractor shall maintain the work during construction until the work is
accepted. This maintenance shall be prosecuted such that the roadway or structures are kept in satisfactory condition at all times.
105.13.1 In the case of a contract for placing a course upon a course or subgrade previously constructed, the
contractor shall maintain the previous course or subgrade during all construction operations.
105.13.2 No direct payment will be made for maintenance of the work before the work is accepted.
105.14 Failure to Maintain Roadway or Structure. If the contractor’s performance at any time fails to comply
with the provisions of Sec 105.13, the engineer will notify the contractor of such non-compliance. If notice is provided verbally, notice will be promptly confirmed in writing. If the contractor fails to remedy unsatisfactory maintenance within 24 hours after receipt of such notice, the engineer may immediately proceed to maintain the project, and the entire cost of this maintenance will be deducted from monies due or to become due the contractor.
105.15 Acceptance.
105.15.1 Partial Acceptance. The contractor may request that the engineer inspect the following completed
sections of work for acceptance at any time during the prosecution of the project:
105.15.1 1 If the contract contains seasonal items, such as sodding, painting or such items as might delay the
final completion of the project, a partial acceptance of the completed portion may be made prior to completion of the entire project. If the engineer finds upon inspection that the completed work is in acceptable condition, 50the contractor will be notified in writing and after such notice has been given, the contractor will be relieved of the duty of maintaining and protecting that work to the extent provided in the notice.
105.15.1 2 Nothing in the contract shall be construed to relieve the contractor of full responsibility for making
good any non-latent defect in work or material found on any section of work prior to final acceptance of the entire project, to alter in any manner the method of payment prescribed in the contract or to constitute a waiver of any claim the Commission might have against the contractor on the entire project.
105.15.2 Final Acceptance. Upon receipt by the engineer of all project documentation required by the contract
and verification by the engineer that all material incorporated into the work has been properly inspected, the engineer will make the final acceptance upon completion of the final inspection and acceptance for maintenance in accordance with Sec 105.10.7.
105.15.2 1 When required by the contract, project documentation shall consist of the following: Contractor’s
Affidavit Regarding Settlement of Claims (Form C-242), Final Change Order, DBE Participation List and Final Verification, Affidavit – Compliance with the Prevailing Wage Law.
105.15.2 2 Final acceptance will not excuse the contractor’s liability or responsibility to the Commission for any
latent defects in the work or material incorporated into the work, or for claims relating to any work or material incorporated into the work.
105.16 Controversies and Claims for Adjustment.
105.16.1 The contractor shall follow the requirements of Sec 104.4 for written notification of differing site
conditions or significant changes in the character of work and Sec 108.15 for suspensions of work directed by the engineer. If, after receiving a written reply from the engineer the contractor considers additional compensation is due, the contractor shall file a written notice of claim for additional compensation within 60 days after completing the work in question. The procedure for filing a claim shall be as described in Secs
105.16.6 through 105.16.8.2.
105.16.2 If the contractor considers additional compensation may be due for work or material not clearly
covered in the contract or not ordered in writing by the engineer as change in the work, the contractor shall notify the engineer in writing of the intention to make a claim before beginning the work in question. If notification is not given and the engineer is not afforded proper facilities by the contractor to provide necessary inspection and for keeping strict account of actual costs, the contractor agrees to waive any claims for additional compensation. Notice by the contractor and the fact that the engineer has kept account of the costs shall not be construed as substantiating the validity of the claim. The contractor shall file a written notice of claim for additional compensation within 60 days after completing the work in question. The procedure for filing the claim shall be as described in Secs 105.16.6 through 105.16.8.2.
105.16.3 Claims for additional time or compensation under Sec 104 shall be filed within 60 days after
completing the work in question. Claims for additional time or compensation in accordance with Sec 108 shall be filed within 60 days after receipt of the engineer’s determination. The procedures for filing and the disposition of the claim or controversy shall be in accordance with Secs 105.16.3 through 105.16.9.
105.16.4 If the contractor has any claim against the Commission arising out of the provisions of the contract or
the performance or non-performance thereunder, and is not within the scope of Sec 105.16.1 through 105.16.3, the claim shall be filed within the earlier of:
105.16.5 If the Commission has a claim against the contractor that in any way arises out of the provisions of the
contract or the performance or non-performance thereunder, the claim will be filed within 90 days after the date of final inspection under Sec 105.10.7, except for claims of a differing site condition or defects in work or material under Sec 105.15.2.2. 51105.16.6 If the claim is against the Commission, the written claim shall be personally delivered or sent by certified mail to the Office of the Secretary of the Commission in Jefferson City, Missouri.

If the claim is against an assignee, the written claim will be personally delivered or sent by certified mail to the assignee at the address shown on the accepted notice of assignment.
105.16.6 1 This provision shall not extend the claim filing time limits of the contractor or the Commission in the
case of a differing site condition or a suspension of the work under Sec 108.
105.16.6 2 This provision will not limit the Commission’s claim filing time for defects in work or material not
discovered within 90 days after the date of final inspection under Sec 105.10.7 or other claim rights not discovered within 60 days of filing of any claim by the contractor, or as to any work covered by a separate or continuing performance bond specified to survive project final acceptance.
105.16.7 Claim submittals on the contractor’s part shall be in sufficient detail, as specified in this section, to
enable the engineer to determine the basis for additional time or compensation. The following minimum information shall accompany each claim submitted:
105.16.8 Required Certification of Claims. The claim submittal shall include the contractor’s written
certification, under oath, attesting to the following:
105.16.8 1 The person signing the claim and affidavit under oath shall be the owner if the contractor is a sole
proprietorship, shall be a general partner if the contractor is a partnership, shall be an authorized agent if the contractor is a limited liability company or joint venture, or shall be an authorized officer or member of the board if the contractor is a corporation.
105.16.8 2 No claim shall be deemed filed under the contract by a contractor until:
105.16.9 Duty to Supply Records and Information Regarding a Claim or Controversy. The Commission is
subject to a legal duty to pay no additional sum to a contractor after a contract has been entered into and performed in whole or part, or any claim under any agreement or contract made without express authority of 53law. The Commission is under the further legal duty to pay only those claims that are supported, which have a basis in the terms of the contract and applicable state law as fairly construed and which are in accordance with prevailing principles of public contract law. The Commission is obligated by law to set forth both the contractual basis and the cost data, supported by audit, of actual costs incurred by the contractor to substantiate any amount paid.
105.16.9 1 Record Retention. From and after the date the contractor determines a cause has occurred for a
possible contract adjustment, and notwithstanding any policy the contractor may have regarding record retention, the contractor shall retain all files, records and data, in whatever form, that relate to the contractor’s bid and performance of the contract relevant to the possible contract adjustment.
105.16.9 2 Duty to Supply Information. During the review of the claim, the contractor and the contractor’s
subcontractors and suppliers shall cooperate with MoDOT and shall provide, if requested, access to the documents that contain the below information, to the extent requested by MoDOT and MoDOT’s attorneys or consultants. Request for some, but not all, of the following information will not preclude MoDOT’s right to request the same or additional information at another time:
105.16.9 3 Confidentiality of Records. The contractor and, if applicable, the contractor’s subcontractors and
suppliers, shall deliver to MoDOT and MoDOT’s attorneys or consultants, all information and documents requested, notwithstanding any claim of confidentiality or proprietary interest in the records. MoDOT and MoDOT’s attorneys and consultants will affirmatively act to protect the records and information from disclosure beyond those persons having a need to know the information for the purpose of making a decision regarding the claim, or for law enforcement purposes. The contractor shall identify and segregate any documents or information that the contractor considers particularly sensitive.
105.16.10 On any claim for additional compensation for work on the project, whether claimed under the
contract, for a differing site condition, as a change in the work, for breach of the contract, for a positive representation by which the contract was induced or otherwise, the following items shall never be allowable or claimed directly or indirectly:
105.16.11 Any claim, controversy or item of any claim or controversy not included in the writings required to be
filed in Sec 105.16, or any claim included but not clearly defined and specifically set out, itemized and supported, or any notice or claim not filed within the time and in the manner provided in Sec 105.16, shall be forever waived, and shall neither constitute the basis of nor be included in any legal action, counterclaim, defense, set-off, arbitration or other alternative dispute resolution procedure mutually agreed upon between the parties.
105.16.11 1 The omission of any claim or of the detail required to be in a claim in accordance with Sec 105.16.7
will not be subject to cure by making the claim or supplying the details in any later court or alternative dispute resolution proceeding.
105.16.11 2 MoDOT has established a written procedure for handling contractor claims and controversies that
provides the process for resolution of all claims and the engineer’s final decision. The completion of that process and the engineer’s final decision will be a condition precedent to any legal action, counterclaim, defense, set-off or arbitration concerning the matters claimed. Any claim or controversy, or any portion thereof that has not been presented for handling in accordance with MoDOT’s contractor claims and controversies procedure will not be subject to resolution in an alternate dispute resolution process.
105.16.12 MoDOT’s review of a claim pursuant to Sec 105.16 will be in addition to the right or duty of MoDOT
or the Commission to conduct audits or other reviews of a claim or contractor’s books of account or operations otherwise provided by federal or state laws or the rules of civil procedure.
105.17 Venue. Any action concerning any matter, thing or dispute arising out of or relating to the terms,
performance, non-performance or otherwise of the agreement, shall be filed in the Circuit Court of Cole County, Missouri. The parties agree that the contract is entered into at Jefferson City, Missouri, and substantial elements of the contract’s performance will take place or be delivered at Jefferson City, Missouri, by reason of which the contractor consents to venue of any action by or against the contractor in Cole County, Missouri. The contractor 55shall cause this provision to be incorporated in all of the contractor’s agreements with, and to be binding upon, all subcontractors in the performance of this agreement.
105.18 Arbitration.
105.18.1 Purpose. By adoption of 226.096 RSMo (L. 2003, HB 668), certain controversies or claims to which
the Missouri Department of Transportation is a party that arises out of or relates to a contract awarded pursuant to subdivision (9) of subsection 1 of 226.130 (RSMo) subject to certain limits and preconditions are subject to, “be settled (sic) by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Construction Industry Arbitration Rules, except as provided, in 226.096”. Under the provisions of Chap. 435 RSMo arbitration is the subject of agreement between the parties to a contract. This section provides for incorporation of the, American Arbitration Association’s, Construction Industry Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures (AAA Rules), amended and effective on the date arbitration is demanded and for their modification and revisions as permitted by the AAA Rules and Chap. 435 RSMo.
105.18.2 Incorporation. The AAA Rules are incorporated as part of the contract except as amended or
excluded. The AAA Rules are further expressly amended or excluded as provided herein and as provided directly or indirectly by 226.096 RSMo (L. 2003, HB 668) and Chap. 435 RSMo.
105.18.3 Regular Track Procedures. The AAA Construction Industry Arbitration Rules, Regular Track

105.18.3 5 R-5. Filing Requirements under a Submission Agreement. Not revised.
105.18.3 6 R-6. Changes of Claim or Counterclaim. Shall be replaced with the following:
The contract between the parties provides for a Notice of Controversy or a Claim for adjustment to the contract prior to any demand for arbitration. Arbitration demands, issues, nature or amount of relief sought, shall not differ or be additional to that in the Notice of Controversy or Claim for contract adjustment provided for in the contract. There may not be a revision of the issues, nature of relief sought or increase in relief during or by way of any presentation of evidence during the arbitration. No award may be upon different issues or basis of relief or provide relief different in nature or greater in amount than contained in the Notice of Controversy or Claim given under the contract and stated in the demand for arbitration. No new or different controversy, claim or counterclaim may be submitted to the arbitrator except with the consent of both parties and the arbitrator and any consent must be clearly expressed, written and signed by the parties. There will be no amendments by implication.
105.18.3 7 R-7. Consolidation or Joinder. Shall be replaced with the following:
If Commission expressly agrees in writing with regard to multiple disputes arising under a particular contract, multiple demands may be consolidated so long as the relief sought in total does not exceed $409,123 in the principal relief sought, as adjusted on an annual basis effective January first of each year in accordance with the Implicit Price Deflator for Personal Consumption Expenditures as calculated pursuant to subsection 5 of section 537.610, RSMo. See http://insurance.mo.gov/industry/sovimmunity.php. Demands to which Commission is not a party in direct privity of contract will never be joined. The issue of consolidation of claims and joinder of parties will not be arbitrable. Nothing in this section shall prohibit more than one demand for arbitration 56pursuant to the same contract, provided that each demand for arbitration arises from a separate claim based upon facts supporting a separate right of relief, filed with the Department and accepted by the department under the Missouri Department of Transportation’s “Contractor Claims and Controversies Procedures”. Neither shall a prime contractor be prohibited from filing a demand for arbitration arising from work, which was subcontracted provided that; (a) the claim was initially accepted by the department under “Contractor Claims and Controversies Procedures.” and (b) would provide a right to contract adjustment separate from any claimed or which could be claimed by the prime contractor for its sole benefit.

The contractor shall assume full responsibility for ordering material of the required quality and quantity. The contractor shall be responsible for the delivered costs of all material ordered. 106.1.2 The material used in the work shall meet all quality requirements of the contract, and shall be obtained from supply sources that meet the approval of the engineer. If a uniform product is not being furnished from a supply source or if for any reason, the product from any source at any time proves to be unsatisfactory, the contractor may be required to furnish approved material from other sources. The engineer may reject the entire output of any source where it is impractical to secure a continuous flow of uniformly satisfactory material. 106.1.3 Any work incorporating material having no prior approval from the engineer shall be performed at the contractor’s risk and may be considered unacceptable and unauthorized and, if so considered, will not be paid for. If a change in source will affect the control or appearance of the work, the use of any one kind or class of material for a specific project from more than one source will be prohibited, except as approved by the engineer. If approved, the engineer will set forth the conditions under which the change may be made. 106.1.4 Material will be subject to inspection or test at any time during production or manufacture or at any subsequent time prior to or after incorporation into the work. The points of inspection will be determined by the engineer. Material for sampling will be selected by the engineer. Material provided by the source solely as a sample of that material for testing verification will not be permitted. Initial inspection, testing and approval or rejection will be made as early as practical. The engineer may waive any of the requirements regarding determination of quality and accept material on certification or visual inspection if, in the judgment of the engineer, the quantity involved is too small or the material use is not sufficiently important to warrant tests. 106.1.5 To expedite the inspection and testing of material, the contractor shall submit a list of proposed sources of material to the engineer at the pre-construction conference or two weeks prior to beginning work, whichever is earlier. The list shall be in a format acceptable to the engineer. At the option of the engineer, material may be approved at the source of supply before delivery is started. 106.2 Local Material Sources. 106.2.1 Designated Sources. The Commission may acquire the right and make available to the contractor the right to take material from sources designated on the plans or described in the contract including the right to use designated property if so specified, for plant site, stockpiles and haul roads. In general, the quality of material contained in such sources will be considered acceptable, but the contractor shall determine the method of operation, equipment and work required to produce a material meeting the specifications from the source. Designation of a source for material will not be a representation of the quantity of acceptable material obtainable or the method, equipment or work required to obtain material from the source. It is not feasible to ascertain from samples the limits for an entire deposit, and variations will be considered as usual and are to be expected. The engineer may order procurement of material from any portion of a deposit and may reject portions of the deposit as unacceptable. 106.2.2 Contractor Furnished Sources. If sources of material are not designated on the plans or described in the contract, or if the contractor desires to use material from sources other than those designated, the contractor shall acquire the necessary rights to take material from the sources and shall pay all costs related thereto, including any that may result from an increase in length of haul. All costs of exploring, meeting environmental requirements and developing such other sources shall be at the contractor’s expense. Environmental compliance documentation shall follow MoDOT requirements for contractor furnished borrow, as described in Sec 203.3, and shall be submitted to the engineer for review and approval. The use of material from other than designated sources will not be permitted until representative samples taken by the contractor in the presence of the engineer have been approved and written authority is issued for the use thereof. If sources of material or material deposits are provided by the contractor, the engineer will test the samples and determine the suitability of the material. 106.2.3 Operation of Sources. Whether sources of material are acquired and made available by the Commission or are furnished by the contractor, activities shall be in compliance with all federal and state laws 61and the areas shall be excavated or worked in such a manner to comply with the current MoDOT Pollution Prevention Plan and minimize siltation of streams, lakes, ponds and reservoirs. 106.2.4 Final Condition of Sources. Unless otherwise permitted, pits and quarries shall be excavated such that water will not collect and stand therein. Sites from which material has been removed shall be left in such a condition to avoid or minimize siltation of streams, lakes, ponds and reservoirs, and shall be left in a neat and presentable condition upon completion of the work. 106.3 Samples, Tests and Cited Specifications. Samples for tests will be taken and shipped to the laboratory in accordance with MoDOT’s Engineering Policy Guide (EPG) 106.3.1. There shall be no direct charge to the Commission for material taken as samples, either for field tests or for laboratory tests. If a specification of a recognized national standard agency (AASHTO, ASTM, AWS, AWWA, etc.) is designated, the material shall meet either the designated specification if a date is indicated or the latest revision thereof in effect at the time of bid opening. Tests of samples of material will be conducted by the engineer in accordance with the methods specified in the contract or in accordance with the latest methods in effect at the time of bid opening, as prescribed by the national standard agency. Such national standard specifications and methods of tests will include those designated as tentative, interim or amended and officially approved and published by the sponsoring agency. If appropriate methods have not been so prescribed, tests shall be performed in a manner determined by the engineer. 106.4 Plant Inspection. The engineer may inspect material at the source. If plant inspection is undertaken the following conditions shall be met. 106.4.1 The engineer shall have the cooperation and assistance of the contractor and the producer of the material. 106.4.2 The engineer shall be permitted unlimited access to all parts of the plant as required for adequate inspection of the plant equipment and for selection of samples. Facilities shall be furnished for the procurement of samples, performance of the tests and for the protection of testing equipment and supplies when tests are conducted at the source of production. 106.4.3 If bituminous shipments are considered by the engineer to justify testing at the source, laboratory facilities and testing equipment meeting requirements of the prescribed methods shall be provided by the supplier. The space and equipment shall be adequate for the orderly and proper testing of material without interference to or by the refinery personnel. 106.4.4 When requested, a Type 1 field laboratory shall be furnished at the aggregate source in accordance with Sec 601. 106.4.5 The Commission will refuse to provide plant inspection at sources where adequate safety measures are not provided and maintained. 106.4.6 The Commission reserves the right to inspect plant equipment and to retest all material prior to or after incorporation into the work and to reject all material which, when retested, do not meet the requirements of the specifications. 106.5 Storage of Material. The contractor shall be responsible for proper storage and handling of all material to ensure preservation of required quality and shall be arranged such as to facilitate inspection. 106.6 Handling Material. All material shall be handled in such a manner as to preserve the material’s quality and fitness for the work. Aggregate shall be transported from the storage site to the work in tight vehicles constructed to prevent loss or segregation of material after loading and measuring. 106.7 Unacceptable Material. All material not in accordance with the specifications, when initially inspected and tested, will be considered defective, and all such material, whether in place or not, will be rejected and unless remedied, shall be removed from the site of the work. Any approved material that, in the judgment of the engineer, is no longer specification compliant will be rejected. Defective material, including any material furnished by the Commission that has been damaged by the contractor after delivery, shall be replaced or reconditioned by the contractor at the contractor’s expense. Rejected material that has been reconditioned or 62corrected such that the material satisfactorily meets the specifications shall not be used without the engineer’s written approval. 106.8 Material Furnished by the Commission. If any material is to be furnished by the Commission, special provisions designating such material will be included in the contract documents. The cost of handling and placing such material after delivery to the contractor will be considered as part of the contract price for that material or work.

Contractor shall provide railroad protective liability insurance when any of the Contractor’s work is to be performed within any railroad right of way and in some cases may be required when the project improvements are near a railroad right of way. The name or names of the railroad companies known to be in the vicinity of the contract improvements will be specified in each contract, but the Contractor shall confirm the railroad companies impacted and the final insurance needed with each railroad. The minimum limits of the insurance indicated by each railroad to the Commission will be included in the contract bid documents for informational purposes, but the Contractor shall be bound by each individual railroad company requirements. Each railroad agency has final determination in the content and coverage limits of the policies required. No work will be permitted within any railroad’s right of way until the railroad involved has reviewed and approved the insurance policy. Any day upon which the Contractor cannot perform work due to such a policy not being approved by the railroad will not be counted as a contract day under Sec 108.7.
107.13.9 Evidence of Insurance. Required evidence of insurance providing confirmation of compliance with
these requirements shall consist of a certificate of insurance, an endorsement to any workers compensation policy waiving the subrogation by the insurer, and any endorsements adding the Commission, MoDOT and its employees as additional insureds where specified. “Blanket” or “automatic” additional insured endorsements providing additional insured coverage “where required by contract,” may be used, provided that such forms provide coverage at least as broad as provided by the specified endorsement forms required.

All evidence of insurance for the prime contractor, including certificates of insurance and required endorsements, and notices shall be submitted electronically by the insurance agent to ContractorSupport@MoDOT.mo.gov. The Contractor shall promptly furnish the engineer with a complete copy of its policy upon request. Failure to furnish evidence of proper insurance, or complete insurance policies when requested, may result in the suspension of work as provided in Sec 108, and may result in other claims or actions for breach of contract or otherwise, as may be recognized at law or in equity.
107.13.9 1 Work Performed by Subcontract. Prior to its commencement of the applicable work, the contractor
shall cause each of its subcontractors to provide insurance that complies with the requirements for contractor- provided insurance. Contractor’s determination of such insurance shall not be interpreted as relieving Contractor or its insurer of any liability otherwise imposed on Contractor or its insurers under these Contract Documents. The Contractor shall promptly furnish the engineer with a complete copy of its subcontractor policies upon request. Failure to furnish evidence of proper insurance, or complete insurance policies when requested, may result in the suspension of work as provided in Sec 108, and may result in other claims or actions for breach of contract or otherwise, as may be recognized at law or in equity.

Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the Commission, MoDOT or its employees to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the Commission, MoDOT or its employees, nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
107.13.10 4 Primary and Non-contributory. For any claims related to this contract, the Contractor’s insurance
coverage shall be primary insurance with respects to the Commission, MoDOT and its employees as the additional insureds. Any other insurance or self-insurance maintained by any of these parties shall be excess of the Contractor’s insurance and shall not contribute with the Contractor’s insurance.
107.13.10 5 Specifications not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this
Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.

107.16 Personal Liability of Public Officials. There shall be no personal liability upon the Chief Engineer, or
any member, employee or agent of the Commission in carrying out any of the provisions of the contract or in exercising any power or authority granted to the individual, it being understood that in such matters the individual acts as an agent and representative of the State, with official and public duty doctrine immunity. If 74any provision of the contract appears to impose a duty on such an individual, the duty will remain exclusively that of the Commission and will not be a personal duty or obligation of the individual.
107.17 Contractors That Are Not Resident In Missouri. Any contractor that is not a permanent resident of or
domiciled in Missouri shall provide to the Commission proof of compliance with the Missouri "nonresident employers" financial assurance laws at Sections 285.230 to 285.234, RSMo, before the contractor performs any work on a project.
107.17.1 A nonresident contractor that is a "transient employer" as that term is defined in Section 285.230.1,
RSMo, and 12 CSR 10-2.017(1)(A), shall file with the Commission a photocopy of the contractor’s current transient employer's certificate of registration issued by the Missouri Department of Revenue before performing any work on a project. A nonresident contractor that is not classified by the Missouri Department of Revenue as a "transient employer" because the nonresident contractor has properly registered with the Missouri Department of Revenue and the Missouri Division of Employment Security, and has filed and paid Missouri state income taxes for more than 24 consecutive months, shall file with the Commission a photocopy of the contractor’s certificate of registration, issued by the Missouri Department of Revenue, that it is not a "transient employer" before performing any work on a project.
107.17.2 The contractor shall require a nonresident subcontractor to file with the Commission a photocopy of
the subcontractor’s current transient employer's or alternate certificate of registration, as issued by the Missouri Department of Revenue, before that subcontractor performs any work on a project.
107.17.3 Any nonresident contractor or subcontractor that fails to file the financial assurance forms with the
Missouri Department of Revenue as required by Missouri law will be prohibited from contracting for or performing labor on any project for a period of one year.
107.18 Basis of Payment. No direct payment will be made for compliance with Sec 107, except as provided by
Sec 618. 75SECTION 108 PROSECUTION AND PROGRESS 108.1 Subletting of Contract. 108.1.1 The contractor shall not sublet, sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of the contract or contracts or any portion thereof, or of any right, title, or interest therein, without written consent of the engineer. Requests for permission to sublet, assign or otherwise dispose of any portion of the contract shall be in writing and accompanied by evidence that the organization that will perform the work is particularly experienced and equipped for such work. In case such consent is given, the contractor will be permitted to sublet a portion thereof, but the contractor's organization shall perform work amounting to no less than 40 percent of the total contract cost. Certification or classification of a contractor by type of work performed or consent to a subcontract shall not constitute the Commission's endorsement of the qualifications of the subcontractor or that the particular subcontractor’s work will constitute compliance with any other provisions of the contract. 108.1.2 The value of the work sublet will be the amount designated in the contractual agreement between the contractor and the subcontractor. The subcontractor shall perform the work described in the subcontract agreement. No subcontracts, or transfer of contract, will in any case release the contractor's liability under the contract and bonds. Consent to a subcontract will not create a direct contractual relationship between the subcontractor and the Commission. 108.1.3 The contractor shall furnish to the Commission a complete copy of the signed subcontract, and all revisions upon request. 108.1.4 A contractor, at the discretion of the engineer, may make a substitution for a subcontract that was disclosed with the bid in accordance with Sec 102.7 or may add a subcontract that would have required disclosure in accordance with Sec 102.7. The contractor shall submit the name of the new subcontractor, the category of work, the dollar value of each subcontract and the reason for the substitution or addition in writing to the engineer for consideration. 108.2 Notice to Proceed. The notice to proceed will stipulate the date the contractor is expected to begin work. The Commission will issue the notice to proceed by stipulating the date on the notice of award sent to all successful bidders, or on a separate form for this purpose. Prior to the stipulated date, the contractor shall execute and file the prescribed number of copies of the contract and bond and shall furnish to the Commission satisfactory evidence of having complied with insurance requirements. 108.3 Prosecution of Work. The contractor will be expected to start work on the date stipulated by the notice to proceed. If all contract requirements have been met in accordance with Sec 108.2 the contractor may start work before the date stipulated by the notice to proceed, provided the engineer is notified in writing at least three days prior to the date on which the contractor expects to begin. 108.3.1 The contractor shall continuously and diligently prosecute the work in such order and manner as will ensure the completion of the work within the specified time, and the contractor shall be fully responsible for the prosecution and coordination of all work being performed under the contract. 108.3.2 The work in progress shall receive the personal attention either of the contractor or of a competent and reliable representative of the contractor who shall have full and final authority to act for the contractor. If authority is delegated to a representative of the contractor, the contractor shall notify the engineer in writing, stating the name of the person authorized to act as the contractor’s representative, and stating the name or names of persons authorized to sign the various documents such as weekly reports, change orders, force account statements, labor payrolls and any other documents that may be required during the progress of the work. If progress at any time is not adequate to meet the contractor's schedule and the contract completion time, the contractor shall take all steps necessary to complete the work in the time and manner specified in the contract. 108.3.3 Prior to beginning any work on contracts involving a joint venture, the joint venturers shall appoint and maintain a single representative having full and final authority to act for the joint venture. The engineer shall be notified in writing of the name of this representative and of any replacements. 108.4 Progress Schedules. The contractor shall submit a progress schedule to the engineer for review prior to or at the pre-construction conference. The progress schedule shall be used to establish construction operations and 76to monitor the progress of the work, although the engineer's determination of the then major operation or controlling item of work will always prevail. The progress schedule shall be in the form specified in Sec 108.4.1, unless the contract contains different requirements. The progress schedule shall be based on the number of working days, calendar days or other increments as set forth in the contract that the contractor expects to require in completing the project, recognizing the capabilities of labor, equipment, arrangements for material, mobilization, shop drawing preparation and approvals, and other relevant items. If an electronic computer software program is used to generate the schedule, the initial and any revised schedules shall be accompanied by a disk containing the schedule files in the native format of the software program used to create the schedule. The disk shall be labeled with the contract ID, route, county, date of revision, and the name of the software program used. The contractor will not be required to provide any copies of the software program. 108.4.1 Form and Contents of Progress Schedule. The progress schedule shall contain an activities schedule bar chart and may, at the contractor's option, include a written narrative that breaks down into detail the time in working days, calendar days or completion date involved in performing all construction activities for the duration of the project, and which is in a suitable scale as to indicate the percentage of work scheduled for completion at any time. The schedule shall indicate all interdependencies between activities. The progress schedule shall also clearly outline the intended maintenance of traffic, work phasing provided by the contract and such other information, as required by the contract. 108.4.2 Preparation of Initial Schedule. The contractor shall complete development of a progress schedule and present a copy to the engineer prior to or at the pre-construction conference. 108.4.2.1 The construction time, as indicated by the progress schedule, for the entire project or any milestone, shall not exceed the specified contract time. If any milestone date or contract completion date is exceeded in the schedule, time estimates on the progress schedule shall be revised. The controlling activity shall be clearly shown for each day of the schedule. A controlling activity will be defined as that part of a progress-controlling item or items that must be performed before the next progress-controlling item of work can be started. Following a review of the progress schedule by the engineer, the engineer and contractor will meet for a joint review, correction and adjustment of the schedule, if necessary. 108.4.2.2 If necessary this process will be repeated. However, the schedule shall be finalized by the contractor within seven days after request for correction and adjustment to the schedule. 108.4.3 Cost and Intent of Progress Schedules. The review by the engineer of any progress schedule will not constitute a determination that the schedule is reasonable, that following the schedule will result in timely completion, or that deviation will result in a delayed completion. The progress schedule, and any updates provided, is not a part of the contract. If the schedule reflects a completion date different than that specified in the contract, that does not void the completion date or working days specified in the contract. If any schedule reflects a completion time earlier than that specified in the contract, the contractor specifically understands that no claim for additional contract time or compensation will lie against the Commission if the work is not completed by the earlier time shown on the schedule. It will be the contractor's responsibility to determine the most feasible order of work consistent with the requirements of the contract. 108.4.3.1 No direct payment will be made for furnishing progress schedules or revisions. 108.4.3.2 If the contractor fails to comply with the requirement to supply an initial or any revised progress schedule, the engineer may withhold progress payments until a schedule has been submitted and reviewed. 108.4.4 Revised Progress Schedules. The contractor shall provide a revised progress schedule, which will then become the current progress schedule:
108.10 Default of Contract. After notice and an opportunity to remedy, the engineer may declare the contractor
in default, if the contractor:
108.10.1 The engineer will give notice in writing to the contractor and surety of the condition described in Sec
108.10, and advise the contractor and surety of the actions required for remedy. If the contractor does not proceed to remedy the condition within ten days of receipt of this notice, the engineer may declare the contractor in default. The declaration of default will be made in writing to the contractor and the surety.
108.10.2 If within ten days after receipt of the declaration of default, the surety does not proceed to assume the
contract for completion under the direction of the engineer, the Commission has full power and authority, without impairing the obligation of the contract or the bond: 80(a) To take over the completion of the work.
108.10.3 Liability for Costs. The contractor and surety shall be liable for all costs and expenses incurred in
completing the work, and for all liquidated damages in conformity with the contract. The contractor and surety are obligated to comply with all change orders and directives of the engineer to the same extent, and for the same compensation, if any, as the contractor would have been in the absence of default. In case the sum of such liquidated damages and the expense so incurred is less than the sum that would have been payable under the contract if the work had been completed by the contractor, the contractor or surety will be entitled to receive the difference. If the sum of such expense and such liquidated damages exceeds the sum that would have been payable under the contract, the contractor and surety will be liable and shall pay the amount of such excess. This provision will apply regardless of whether the surety or the Commission completes the contract work. The contractor and surety will solely be liable for the costs and expenses of a completing contractor, laborers and suppliers with which either has contracted.
108.10.4 If it is determined after termination of the contractor's right to proceed that the contractor was not in
default, the rights and obligations of the parties will be the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the Commission under Sec 108.11. Sums to which a contractor may be entitled as a result of the contract termination will be limited to amounts determined under Sec 108.11.
108.10.5 Sureties' Continued Acceptability. A surety failing to proceed within ten days after the written
declaration of default by the engineer under Sec 108.10 may be required to show cause to the Commission why the surety should continue to be accepted for future bonds.
108.11 Termination of Contract for Convenience of the Commission. The Commission may terminate the
entire contract, or any portion thereof, if the engineer determines that a termination is in the Commission's best interest. The engineer will deliver to the contractor and surety a notice of termination specifying the extent of termination and the effective date. A termination of the contract for convenience may be directed at any time after the Commission has made a determination to award a contract. The bidding documents may provide for a termination of the contract for convenience under this section upon the occurrence or nonoccurrence of a specified event after bid opening.
108.11.1 Submittals and Procedures. After receipt of a notice of termination, the contractor shall immediately
proceed with the following obligations:
108.11.2 1 Additional Costs. Within 60 days of the effective termination date, the contractor shall submit any
request for additional damages or costs not covered in Sec 108.11 or elsewhere in the contract. Such a request may include only such cost items as: mobilization, overhead expenses proven to be attributable to the project or the part terminated and not paid for under work not terminated, subcontractor costs not otherwise paid for, actual idle equipment and idle labor cost only for any time the work is stopped in advance of the termination date, guaranteed payments for private land usage as part of the original contract, and any other actual cost for which the contractor feels reimbursement should be made.
108.11.2 1.1 Anticipated profits, including anticipated earnings on usage of owned equipment, and impact, delay
or other direct or indirect costs resulting from this termination that are not expressly authorized, will not be compensable as part of any settlement.
108.11.2 1.2 The contractor and the engineer may agree upon the whole or any part of the amount to be paid
because of the termination. The amount may include a reasonable allowance for profit on work done. The agreed amount may not exceed the total contract price as reduced by the amount of payments previously made and the contract price of work not terminated. The contract will be amended and the contractor paid the agreed amount.
108.11.2 2 Additional Cost Review. If the contractor and the engineer fail to agree on the whole amount to be
paid the contractor because of the termination of work, the Commission will pay the amounts determined as follows, but without duplication of any amounts agreed upon in Sec 108.11.2.1:
108.11.2 1.
108.11.2 2.1 In arriving at the amount due the contractor under this clause, there will be deducted:
108.11.2 2.2 If the termination is partial, the contractor may file a proposal with the engineer for an equitable
adjustment of the price or prices of the continued portion of the contract. The engineer will make any equitable adjustment agreed upon. Any proposal for an equitable adjustment under this clause shall be requested within 60 days from the effective date of termination unless extended in writing by the engineer.
108.11.2 2.3 The contractor shall maintain and make available all project cost records to the engineer for audit to
the extent necessary to determine the validity and amount for each item requested. This will include, but is not limited to, all items described in Sec 105.16. These records and documents shall be made available to the engineer at the contractor's office at all reasonable times, without any direct charge. If approved by the engineer, photographs, microphotographs or other authentic reproductions may be maintained instead of original records and documents.
108.11.3 Effect of Termination. Termination of the contract or portion thereof will not relieve the contractor of
contractual responsibilities for the work completed, nor will termination relieve the surety of the surety’s obligation for and concerning that part of the contract not terminated or any just claim arising out of the work performed.
108.12 Notice to Contractor and Surety. Notice to the contractor, in case of default or termination of the
contract, shall be deemed to be served when delivered to the person in charge of any office used by the contractor, the contractor's representative at or near the work or by certified mail addressed to the contractor's last known place of business. Notice to the surety shall be deemed served when mailed to the surety's address as shown in the contract by certified mail.
108.13 Termination of Contract for Misconduct. For the purposes of the following provision, "state" will
include the State of Missouri and any other state, commonwealth or territory of the United States. The Commission may declare the contract to be terminated at any time after the contract is awarded and prior to final acceptance of the project, for any one or more of the acts set forth below, if the act occurred after the bid opening or within two years immediately preceding the date of the bid opening, unless the act is a basis for an adverse action under 49 CFR, Part 29 in which case the time limit will not apply, on any Commission or other federal, state or local government or privately awarded contract:
108.13.1 The acts, omissions and liabilities of persons or firms affiliated with the contractor or of persons that
are principals of the contractor, are those of the contractor, unless the circumstances clearly negate that conclusion. Persons or firms are "affiliates" of each other if, directly or indirectly, either one controls or has the power to control the other or a third person controls or has the power to control both. Examples of control include, but are not limited to: interlocking management or ownership, identity of interests among family members, shared facilities and equipment, common use of employees on projects or a new business entity organized following the determination of ineligibility or non-responsibility of a person or firm which has the same or similar management, ownership or principal employees as the ineligible person. A "principal" will be defined as an officer, director, owner, partner or other natural person within a firm with primary management, supervisory or contracting responsibilities.
108.13.2 The Commission will not declare the contract terminated pursuant to this section if the contractor made
a full and complete disclosure of the acts and circumstances described in Sec 108.13 to the Commission in the bid or in writings submitted with the bid and the Commission did not determine the contractor to be non- responsible prior to making the award of the contract. The Commission will not be precluded from terminating the contract under this section if the information provided by the contractor did not constitute a full and complete disclosure of all facts and circumstances pertinent to the issue of the responsibility and integrity of the contractor.
108.13.3 The procedures for notice of the proposed termination of the contract and the contractor’s right to be
heard regarding that proposed action will be those in accordance with a proposed disqualification or suspension under the provisions of 7 CSR 10-18. After notice and an opportunity to be heard, upon a finding of the existence of a basis to terminate a contract under this section, the Commission may terminate the contract immediately or at the occurrence of some specific date or event in the future, prior to project completion, upon delivery of a written notice to the contractor by actual service or by certified mail, return receipt requested, sent to the address of record of the contractor. Effective with the contract termination date, the contractor shall discontinue further work on the project and shall instruct subcontractors and suppliers to do the same, other than to remove promptly the contractor’s personnel, equipment and supplies from the project site. The contractor will be paid for all completed work to that date at the contract price. At the option of the engineer, the Commission may assume the possession and cost of any specially fabricated material or supplies for the project that have been ordered prior to notice of termination, but have not been installed on the date of termination. The contractor and surety will be liable to the Commission for all costs and expenses incurred by the Commission in completing the project, including, but not limited to, the Commission's costs to redraft and rebid the project, which costs and expenses exceed the total of the contractor's bid price plus additional expenses allowed by the engineer during the contractor's work on the project, less the amount paid to the contractor by the Commission. The Commission will not be liable for damages for breach of contract or in any other action or respect for declaring a default if one exists under this section and for terminating the contract prior to completion by the contractor.
108.13.4 The satisfactory performance of a contract, prior to the notice to the contractor of the intent to
terminate the contract for misconduct, will not be a basis to determine whether the contract may be terminated for misconduct under this section.
108.13.5 The contractor shall file any claim the contractor has against the Commission within 60 days after the
effective date of termination, pursuant to the procedures of Sec 105. The Commission will file any claim the Commission has against the contractor or surety within 60 days of the date of final acceptance of the project, whether or not it is renumbered or redesigned, and whether completed by the surety, by a successor contractor retained by the Commission, or by the Commission itself. Any Commission claim will be filed pursuant to the procedures of Sec 105.
108.14 Determination of Compensation and Contract Time Extension for Excusable, Noncompensable
and Compensable Delays. An extension of the contract time may be granted under the following conditions provided documentation has been given to the engineer in accordance with Secs 108.14.3 through 108.14.5. Strict adherence to the provisions of this section will be a condition precedent to the contractor's entitlement to an extension of contract time or compensation because of project delays. 84108.14.1 Excusable or Noncompensable Delay. Contract time allowed for the performance of the work may be extended for delays caused by acts of God, acts of the public enemy, fires, floods, earthquakes, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, unusually severe weather or other delays not caused by the contractor's fault or negligence.
108.14.2 Compensable Delay. Contract time allowed for performance of the work may be extended for delays
caused by the Commission. The contractor may be granted an extension of time and additional compensation only as provided by Sec 109.
108.14.3 Notification of Delay. Within seven days of the occurrence of a delay to the prosecution of any phase
of the work, the contractor shall notify the engineer in writing of such a delay and indicate that a request for delay consideration will be filed. Delay costs incurred prior to notifying the engineer that operations have been delayed will be noncompensable.
108.14.4 Procedures Following a Delay. The contractor shall keep daily records of all non-salaried labor,
material costs and equipment expenses for all operations affected by the delay.
108.14.4 1 The contractor shall maintain a daily record of each operation affected by the delay and the station
location of the operations affected. Daily records of the operations and stations will also be maintained by the engineer. Each Monday, the contractor shall compare the previous week's daily records with the records kept by the engineer. The contractor shall also prepare and submit written reports to the engineer each Monday containing the following information:
108.14.4 2 The contractor shall provide written notice to the engineer within seven days of the results of the
comparison of the detailed reports performed each Monday and shall define any disagreements between specific records.
108.14.4 3 Failure to meet to review the engineer's records or to report disagreements between the records will
be considered conclusive evidence that the engineer's records are accurate.
108.14.5 Procedures Following Completion of Work Allegedly Delayed. Within the earlier of 15 days of
completion of any phase of work allegedly delayed, or of project completion, the contractor shall submit a report to the engineer containing the following information:
108.14.5 1 All costs shown in the report submitted to the engineer must be directly caused by the delay event
and shall reflect the actual costs incurred as shown on the contractor's project cost records kept in the ordinary course of business.
108.14.5 2 The engineer will review the contractor's submission and any reports prepared for the engineer. A
written decision will be provided to the contractor within 60 days of the receipt of the complete contractor's submission. This time may be extended if the engineer requires additional information. The contractor shall state affirmatively in writing when the contractor has made a complete submission of information regarding a delay event.
108.14.5 3 In the case of compensable delays, if the engineer determines that the Commission is responsible for
delays to the contractor's operations, the engineer's written decision will reflect the nature and extent of any resulting equitable adjustment to the contract in accordance with Sec 109.
108.15 Suspension of Work Directed by the Engineer.
108.15.1 If the performance of all or any portion of the work is suspended or delayed by the engineer for an
unreasonable period of time not originally anticipated, customary or inherent to the construction industry, and the contractor believes that additional compensation or contract time is due as a result of such suspension or delay, the contractor shall submit to the engineer in writing a request for adjustment within seven days of receipt of the notice to resume work. The request shall set forth the reasons and support for such an adjustment. The procedures of Secs 108.14.4 and 108.14.5 will apply to requests for additional compensation or time claimed by the contractor as a result of a suspension of work directed by the engineer under this section.
108.15.2 Upon receipt, the engineer will evaluate the contractor's request. If the engineer agrees that the cost or
time required for the performance of the contract has increased as a result of such a suspension and the suspension was caused by conditions beyond the control of and not the fault of the contractor, suppliers or subcontractors, and not caused by weather, the engineer will make an adjustment, excluding profit, and modify the contract in writing accordingly. The engineer will notify the contractor of the engineer's determination whether or not an adjustment of the contract is warranted.
108.15.3 No contract adjustment will be made unless the contractor has submitted the request for adjustment
within the time prescribed.
108.15.4 No contract adjustment will be allowed under this clause to the extent that performance would have
been suspended or delayed by any other cause, or an adjustment is provided for or excluded under any other term or condition of the contract. 86 SECTION 109 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 109.1 Measurement of Quantities. All work completed under the contract will be measured by the engineer according to United States standard measure or will be paid for on a contract quantity basis as set out elsewhere in these specifications. The method of measurement and basis of payment will be made to the nearest whole number unless specified otherwise. When the contract quantity of any item is found to include appreciable errors, or when an authorized revision of the plans is made, the quantity will be corrected before making final payment. The method of measurement and computations to be used in determination of quantities of material furnished and of work performed under the contract will be those methods generally recognized as conforming to good engineering practice. 109.2 Scope of Payment. 109.2.1 Compensation. The contractor shall receive and accept compensation provided for in the contract as full payment for performing all work under the contract in a complete and acceptable manner, and for all risk, loss, damage or expense arising from the work or the prosecution thereof subject to Sec 109.8. 109.2.2 Completed Improvements. The payment of any current or final estimate, or the acceptance of any portion of the work as provided in the specifications, will not affect the obligation of the contractor to submit for final acceptance a completed improvement in accordance with the contract. 109.3 Compensation for Altered Quantities. When the accepted quantities of work vary from the quantities in the contract, the contractor shall accept payment at the original contract unit prices for the accepted quantities of work done. No allowance will be made for any increased cost, except as provided in Sec 104 and Sec 108. 109.4 Differing Site Conditions and Changes in the Work. Contract adjustments to compensate for changes in the work or extra work caused by differing site conditions or changes in the work performed in accordance with Sec 104 will be determined by use of one of the following methods, in order of precedence 109.4.1 Contract Unit Prices. Where contract unit prices exist, the contract unit price will always be applied without deviation, unless the effect of a differing site condition or a significant change in the character of the work requires an equitable adjustment to a contract unit price under the terms of this contract. Equitable adjustments will exclude any anticipated profits. 109.4.2 Unit Prices or Lump Sum Amount Agreed Upon in the Change Order Authorizing the Work. Where contract unit prices do not exist for the work to be done, the parties may agree to such unit prices or a lump sum price for that work. Where an equitable adjustment to a unit price is required, the parties may agree to the adjustment to be made to the contract unit price, excluding any anticipated profits. Prior to agreeing upon such unit or lump sum prices, the engineer may require from the contractor any information to which the engineer is authorized under Sec 104. 109.4.3 Equitable Adjustment. In all other cases, except work ordered to be performed under force account, the engineer will make an equitable adjustment to or determination of the affected contract prices for the work, based on the contractor's actual costs to perform the work. This determination will be consistent with the contractor's other proven costs to perform the contract work, as shown in the contractor's bid computations and project cost records, produced and kept in the ordinary course of business. Prior to making an equitable adjustment, the engineer may require from the contractor any information relevant to that determination, including the information authorized under Sec 104. The condition precedent to determination of contractor entitlement and amount of any contract adjustment and Commission liability will be that the adjustment:
109.10 Assignments. Neither the contract, nor any duties or obligations or rights of the contractor or the
contractor’s surety arising under, from or relating to the contract, or to be performed as required by the contract, and whether present or prospective, including, without limitation, money due at any time or any claim of any character arising from or relating to performance or nonperformance of the contract, whether for breach or otherwise, shall be assigned or transferred to any other person so as to bind or affect the Commission absent the express written consent of the surety and the Commission and upon a written request and compliance with such requirements as the engineer or Commission may provide.
109.11 Compensation for Project Delays. This provision will apply to and will control all contract
adjustments, change orders and claims for additional compensation that are time related, resulting from compensable project delays, inefficiency, standby, extended performance or described in any other term. 91109.11.1 Only the actual and documented additional costs associated with the following items will be recoverable by the contractor as an equitable adjustment for delay.
109.11.2 All costs claimed shall be adequately documented when measuring additional equipment expenses (i.e.
ownership expenses) arising as a direct result of a delay caused by MoDOT. Actual records kept in the usual course of business, measuring actual increased ownership expenses pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, may be required at the discretion of the engineer for determining equipment costs. For delays that the engineer determines to be short-term, or when the engineer determines this method acceptable, equipment costs shall be calculated using the provisions for authorized standby time in Sec 109.5.4, except that no increase for overhead or profit will be allowed in excess of what is established in Sec 109.11.1.
109.11.3 The parties agree that, in any adjustment for delay costs, MoDOT will have no liability for the
following items of damages or expense.
109.12 Change Orders. Except as otherwise provided for in the change order, an adjustment of the contract
price or time of contract performance in a change order constitutes compensation in full to the contractor, subcontractors and suppliers for all costs and time effects directly or indirectly attributable to the matter described in the change order, for all delays related thereto, for all impact, cumulative impacts and for performance of the change within the time stated. The surety's liability under the contract bond and contract shall not be limited to the penal sum as set forth in the contract bond. The surety shall be liable and responsible to the Commission for the contractor's entire performance and of all obligations arising under or from the contract, which shall include, but not be limited to, any change orders issued under the contract that increase the cost of the contract.
109.13 Prompt Payment to Subcontractors and Suppliers. The requirements set forth in this section will
apply to all contracts where the federal government is participating in the cost of construction.
109.13.1 When the contractor receives any payment from the Commission, the contractor shall, within the
earlier of fifteen days of receipt of that payment, or the date provided by the subcontract or purchase order, pay each subcontractor or supplier a sum, less only any retention provided by the subcontractor or purchase order or sum withheld as allowed by Sec 109.13.3, equal to one of the following: 92(a) The value of that subcontractor's work, services or material included on the contractor payment estimate applicable to that payment.
109.13.2 Notwithstanding any conflicting provision in a subcontract or purchase order and subject only to the
requirements of Sec 109.13.3, the contractor shall make final payment of the balance of all sums under a subcontract or purchase order, including any retention, within 30 days of the satisfactory completion of the subcontractor's work or services, or a supplier's final delivery of materials to be provided.
109.13.3 The contractor may withhold periodic payment or final payment to a subcontractor or supplier only for
the following causes and only if that subcontractor or supplier is directly involved:
109.14 Price Adjustment for Fuel. If the contractor accepts the option for fuel adjustment in the bid proposal,
the method of price adjustment for the fuel used on the items of work specified herein will be based on "Fuel Usage Factors" The following table specifies the fuel usage factors for Production and On-Road Hauling. The On-Road Hauling Factor is based on an average 30-mile round trip and will be used regardless of the actual haul distance. Price adjustment for fuel does not apply to fixed-cost items listed in Job Order Contracts. Price adjustment for fuel shall only apply to items that are defined in the table below and listed in the Listing of Bid Items for Highway Construction at the time of bid. Non-standard bid items shall not be subject to price adjustment for fuel unless specified elsewhere in the contract.

Includes base shown in pay limits for optional shoulder designs (e.g. A3 shoulder), but not the portion identified as incidental base.
109.14.1 The first day of each month (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays) in which the project is bid
will be used to establish the "Starting Fuel Index" for the duration of the project. The "Starting Fuel Index" will be the average of the values given for No. 2 fuel as reported by Platt's Oilgram - PAD 2 - St. Louis Area.
109.14.2 The pay items and unit prices in the contract will not change. The Commission will, on the first day of
each month (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays), determine the "Monthly Fuel Index" of No. 2 fuel from the price index as reported by Platt's Oilgram - PAD 2 - St. Louis Area, which will apply to all payment estimates during that month regardless of the type fuel used.
109.14.3 The quantities of completed work for the payment period will be determined by the engineer and
included in the payment estimate. These same quantities will be used to determine the fuel usage for any price adjustment. 94109.14.4 The difference (±) between the "Monthly Fuel Index" and the "Starting Fuel Index" will be the "Monthly Fuel Index Adjustment Factor". This "Monthly Fuel Index Adjustment Factor", along with the "Fuel Usage Factor" and quantities of completed work for which payment is made will determine the fuel adjustment payment or deduction.
109.14.5 If adjustments are made in the contract quantities, the contractor shall accept the fuel adjustment as full
compensation for increases or decreases in the price of fuel regardless of the amounts of overrun or underrun.
109.14.6 The fuel adjustment will be computed each pay period work is performed, for the usage of fuel by the
following procedure: Fuel Adjustment = (Fuel Usage Factor) x (Monthly Fuel Index Adjustment Factor) x (Units of Work included in the payment estimate)
109.14.7 Payments or deductions for the fuel adjustments on the various items of work will be made on the
estimate as one "Fuel Adjustment". No change order will be required.
109.14.8 If the bidder wishes to be bound by these specifications, the bidder shall execute the acceptance form
in the proposal. Failure by the bidder to execute the acceptance form will be interpreted to mean election to not participate in the price adjustment for fuel.
109.15 Price Adjustment for Asphalt Cement.
109.15.1 Asphalt Cement Price Index. Adjustments will be made to the payments due the Contractor for any
plant mix bituminous base, plant mix bituminous pavement, plant mix bituminous surface leveling, asphaltic concrete pavement and ultrathin bonded asphalt wearing surface that contains performance graded (PG) asphalt binder when it has been determined that the Monthly Asphalt Index for the month prior to placement of the asphalt mixture has fluctuated from the Monthly Asphalt Index for the month the project was let. The Monthly Asphalt Index shall be established for each calendar month as the average of the midpoint selling prices of PG64-22 for St. Louis and Kansas City, Missouri areas, as published by Poten and Partners Inc. in the Asphalt Weekly Monitor®, on the first Monday preceding the date of the normal monthly MoDOT letting. For months when there is no normal monthly letting, the published price on the third Monday of that month shall be used for the Monthly Asphalt Index. Special lettings shall have no effect on determining the Monthly Asphalt Index. The asphalt base index shall be the Monthly Asphalt Index for the month of the bid opening. For calculation of the price adjustment, any asphalt placed on the first day of a month will generally be considered as placed the previous month to keep price adjustments in sync with MoDOT's normal payment estimate period schedule. The Commission reserves the right to include asphalt placed on the first day of the month with the current month to accomodate financial accounting termini, such as the beginning of the state and federal fiscal years (July 1 and October 1).
109.15.1 1 The price adjustment will be applied to the actual amount of virgin PG asphalt binder used by the
Contractor for all asphalt items specified in Sec 109.15.1. For asphalt mixtures that are paid for by the square yard, the price adjustments will be made for applicable equivalent tons, as calculated by the engineer, based upon the plan square yard quantity and thickness converted to tons, excluding the 1:1 wedge. The price adjustment will be applied to all Job Order Contract projects for all quantities of the wet ton and square yard asphalt mix. The percentage of virgin PG asphalt binder as shown in the job mix formula, in accordance with Sec 401, 402, Sec 403 and Sec 413, will be the basis for price adjustments for any asphalt mix type placed on the project. The effective asphalt binder obtained from the use of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and/or Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS) will not be eligible for adjustment. The Monthly Asphalt Index for PG64-22 will be applied to the asphalt mix for mixes using any PG asphalt binder.
109.15.1 2 Price Adjustment Calculated. To determine the price adjustment for any asphalt mix specified in
this provision, the following formula will be used. A = (B x C/100) x (D-E) Where: A = Dollar value adjustment for mix placed during the payment estimate period B = Tons of asphalt mixture placed during the payment estimate period C = Percent of virgin PG asphalt binder as listed in the job mix formula in use D = The Monthly Asphalt Index for the month prior to the month the asphalt mix was placed 95 E = The asphalt base index = the Monthly Asphalt Index for the month the project was let
109.15.1 3 The engineer will apply the price adjustments, as determined by the price adjustment calculation
established herein, for each payment estimate period in which asphalt is placed, except for any asphalt placed after the allowable contract time period as defined in Sec 108. For asphalt placed after the contract completion time limit, the "D" value used for the price adjustment calculated shall be either the last "D" value prior to the date that contract time was exceeded, or the current monthly "D" value, whichever is lower.
109.15.1 4 Optional. This provision is optional. If the bidder wishes to be bound by this provision, the bidder
shall execute the acceptance form in the Bid. Failure by the bidder to execute the acceptance form will be interpreted to mean election to not participate in the Asphalt Cement Price Index. If the Asphalt Cement Price Index is accepted, PG asphalt binder for the project will not be eligible for a material allowance as described in Sec 109.
109.15.2 Seal Coat Price Index. Adjustments will be made to the payments due the contractor for Seal Coat
placed in accordance with Sec 409. Adjustments will be calculated in accordance with Sec 109.15.1 Asphalt Cement Price Index, except as defined herein.
109.15.2 1 Basis of Payment. To determine the adjustment for any material specified in this provision the
following formula will be used. A = B X (0.68 X 8.58/2000) X (D – E) Where: A = adjustment for Seal Coat placed during the index period B = gallons of seal coat placed during the index period D = average index price at the beginning of the period E = average index price at the time of bid 0.68 = factor to reduce volume of emulsion to AC only (use average specific gravity of 1.03 for seal coat)
109.15.2 2 Optional. This provision is optional. If the bidder wishes to be bound by this provision, the bidder
shall execute the acceptance form in the Bid for the Seal Coat Price Index. Failure by the bidder to execute the acceptance form will be interpreted to mean election to not participate in the Seal Coat Price Index.
109.15.3 Asphalt Underseal Price Index. Adjustments will be made to the payments due the contractor for
Asphalt Underseal placed in accordance with Sec 625. Adjustments will be calculated in accordance with Sec
109.15 1Asphalt Cement Price Index, except as defined herein.
109.15.3 1 Basis of Payment. To determine the adjustment for any material specified in this provision the
following formula will be used. A = B X (8.66/2000) X (D – E) Where: A = adjustment for asphalt underseal placed during the index period B = gallons of asphalt underseal placed during the index period D = average index price at the beginning of the period E = average index price at the time of bid (use average specific gravity of 1.04 for underseal)
109.15.3 2 Optional. This provision is optional. If the bidder wishes to be bound by this provision, the bidder
shall execute the acceptance form in the Bid for the Asphalt Underseal Price Index. Failure by the bidder to execute the acceptance form will be interpreted to mean election to not participate in the Asphalt Underseal Price Index.
109.15.4 Polymer Modified Emulsion Membrane Price Index. Adjustments will be made to the payments
due the contractor for Polymer Modified Emulsion Membrane placed in accordance with Sec 413.30 (UBAWS), but not when used for other purposes. Adjustments will be calculated in accordance with Sec 109.15.1 Asphalt Cement Price Index, except as defined herein. 96109.15.4.1 Basis of Payment. To determine the adjustment for any material specified in this provision the following formula will be used. A = B X (0.9/2000) x (D – E) Where: A = adjustment for membrane placed during the index period B = square yards of membrane placed during the index period D = average index price at the beginning of the period E = average index price at the time of bid
109.15.4 2 Optional. This provision is optional. If the bidder wishes to be bound by the provision, the bidder
shall execute the acceptance form in the Bid for Polymer Modified Emulsion Membrane (UBAWS). Failure by the bidder to execute the acceptance form will be interpreted to mean election not to participate in the Polymer Modified Emulsion Membrane Price Index (UBAWS).

98SECTION 110 STATE AND FEDERAL WAGE RATES AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS 110.1 Wage Rates. The contractor will be required to pay either the state or federal prevailing hourly wage rate for any craft or type of worker required to perform the work, except when expressly provided by the contract documents. State wage rates, information on the required federal aid provisions, and the current federal wage rates are available on MoDOT’s web site. Applicable federal wage rates will be posted on MoDOT’s web site ten days before the bid opening. These supplemental bidding documents have important legal consequences. It shall be conclusively presumed that the documents applicable to the contract are in the bidder's possession and have been reviewed and used by the bidder in the preparation of any bid submitted on a project. 110.2 Federal-Aid Projects. If the federal government is participating in the cost of construction of the project, all applicable federal laws, and the regulations made pursuant to such laws, will be applicable to and become part of the contract, shall be observed by the contractor, and the work will be subject to the inspection of the appropriate federal agency in accordance with Sec 105.10. Contracts with federal-aid will require payment of the prevailing hourly wage rate for each craft or type of work required to execute the contract as determined by the Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Relations, and will require adherence to a schedule of minimum wages as determined by the U.S. Department of Labor. For work performed anywhere on the project, the contractor and the subcontractors shall pay the higher of these two applicable wage rates. 110.3 Prevailing Wages and Records. The prevailing state wage rate, overtime and fringe benefits for the locality of the work as determined by the Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Relations, or by a court decision on appeal, will be contained in the contract. The effective date for the current wage rate, overtime and fringe benefits, for bidding purposes, will be in the bid documents by special provision. The contractor and all subcontractors shall pay no less than the prevailing wage rate, overtime and fringe benefits as specified or as same may be changed by a court decision on appeal, for all work performed under the contract. Per 290.250 RSMo., the contractor shall forfeit a penalty up to $100 per day per worker for each worker that is paid less than the prevailing rate for any work done under the contract by the contractor or any subcontractor as determined by the Missouri Department of Labor. 110.3.1 The contractor is advised that the prevailing wage rate, overtime and fringe benefits are subject to change during the life of the contract by court decision. No such change shall be the basis for adjustment in the contract price. 110.3.2 The contractor and each subcontractor shall keep an accurate record showing the names and occupation of all workers employed by the contractor, including the actual wages, overtime and fringe benefits paid to each worker. The record shall be open to inspection at all reasonable hours by the representatives of the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations of Missouri or the Commission. The contractor shall submit certified copies of payrolls to the engineer each week. 110.3.3 Subsistence Deductions. The contractor shall comply with all applicable federal and state laws for employee payroll deductions for subsistence and as specified herein:
202.10.1 Description. This work shall consist of plugging and closing wells as shown on the plans or as
directed by the engineer.

This work shall consist of excavating, disposing of or compacting all material encountered within the limits of the work not being removed under some other item. This work shall be performed in accordance with the specifications and as shown on the plans, or directed by the engineer. All excavation will be classified as hereafter described. 203.2 Classification of Excavation. 203.2.1 Class A Excavation will consist of all roadway and drainage excavation not classified as Class C or Unclassified. Shale, fire clay, chert broken by intermittent clayey partings or clay seams (joint flint rock), stratified chert cemented with clay seams (hardpan), and plain or bituminous-bound bases or surface courses of macadam, gravel, broken stone or similar material will be considered as Class A Excavation, not Class C Excavation. 203.2.2 Class C Excavation will consist of the removal of stone, including sandstone or igneous formations, in ledges 6 inches thick or more. Laboratory analysis will be made, if necessary, to aid in the determination. A ledge will be considered to be a continuous deposit of rock that may or may not include thin, interbedded seams of soft material or shale. The vertical limits of each ledge will be determined by beds of soft material or shale greater than 24 inches thick. The beds of soft material or shale will be included in the measurement of Class A Excavation, unless the material falls within the vertical limits identified by Sec 203.8.2.3. Boulders or other detached stones, each having a volume of 2 1/2 cubic yards or more, will be considered Class C Excavation. 203.2.3 Unclassified Excavation will consist of the excavation of all material not classified within the contract. 203.3 Borrow. 203.3.1 Borrow will consist of approved material required for the construction of embankment or for other portions of the work, and shall be obtained either from borrow areas shown on the plans or from areas designated or approved by the engineer.

108.15 and will be handled in accordance with that section.
203.4.9 Excavated Material Stockpile. During the process of excavating cuts, the engineer may order specific excavated material placed in stockpiles in order to have suitable material available to complete the upper portion 1 16of embankments and to backfill portions of undergraded cuts. 203.4.10 Embankment Construction. Embankment construction shall consist of constructing roadway embankments, including preparation of the area upon which the embankment is to be placed, constructing dikes and berms, placing and compacting approved material within roadway areas where unsuitable material has been removed, and placing and compacting embankment material in holes, pits and other depressions within the roadway area. Only approved material free of trees, stumps, rubbish and any other deleterious material shall be used in the construction of embankments and backfills. Rocks, broken concrete or other solid material shall not be placed in embankment areas where piling is to be placed or driven. 203.4.10.1 Embankments requiring surcharges, restricted loading rates, embankment control stakes or pore pressure measurement devices shall be constructed to the design template progressively for the full height. Failure of embankments or embankment foundations, or damage to structures that occurs when the contractor fails to observe restricted loading rates, or fails to construct slopes initially to the design template shall be repaired as directed by the engineer at the contractor's expense. 203.4.10.2 Construction of embankments shall not be started on foundation soil or partially completed embankments having more than 0.2 foot of frozen soil, nor shall embankment be built of frozen material. Frozen soil layers in partially completed embankments shall be at least 18 inches apart. No material shall be placed on frozen soil layers encountered within 12 inches of the top of the proposed grading section. Frozen material on foundation soil or partially completed embankment not meeting the above requirements shall be removed before placing material for the embankment. The removal of frozen material from the foundation of an embankment or from any layer of the embankment and the replacement with satisfactory material shall be at the contractor’s expense. 203.4.11 Embankment on Hillsides or Against Existing Embankment. Where embankment is to be placed on hillsides or where new embankment is to be constructed against existing embankments, existing slopes steeper than six horizontal to one vertical measured at a right angle to the roadway shall be continuously benched in no less than 12-inch rises over those areas as required, as the work is brought up in layers. Benching shall be of sufficient width to permit placing and compacting operations. Each horizontal cut shall begin at the intersection of the ground line and the vertical side of the previous bench. Existing slopes shall also be stepped to prevent any wedging action of the embankment against structures. The material thus cut out or compacted along with the new embankment material will be at the contractor’s expense. 203.4.12 Scalping. Scalping shall be performed in accordance with Sec 201.2.3. Where an embankment less than 4 feet high is to be constructed, all sod and vegetative material shall be removed from the surface upon which the embankment is to be placed, and the cleared surface completely broken up by plowing, scarifying or stepping to a minimum depth of 6 inches . This area shall be compacted in the same manner as that required for the embankment placed on the area. Sod not requiring removal shall be thoroughly disked before construction of embankment. Where an embankment less than 3 feet high is to be constructed over a compacted road surface containing bituminous or granular material, the old road surface shall be scarified to a depth of at least 6 inches . This scarified material shall be recompacted. 203.4.13 Embankment Against Existing Structures. If embankment is deposited on one side only of abutments, wingwalls, piers or culvert headwalls, care shall be taken that the area immediately adjacent to the structure is not compacted to the extent that the compaction will cause overturning of or excessive pressure against the structure. Equipment of such weight as may cause damage to culverts or other structures will not be permitted to work over or immediately adjacent to such structures. The embankment adjacent to the end bent of a bridge shall not be placed higher behind than in front of end bents until the superstructure is in place. If embankment is to be placed on both sides of a concrete wall or box-type structure, operations shall be conducted such that the embankment is kept at approximately the same elevation on each side. 203.4.14 Surcharged Embankments. Surcharged embankments shall be built in accordance with the plans and shall remain in place for such time as in accordance with the contract. The requirements for placing and compacting will be waived on the surcharge material above the specified compacted area. 203.4.15 Excess or Unsuitable Material. All excess or unsuitable excavated material, including rock and boulders that cannot be used in embankments, may be placed on the sideslopes of the nearest embankment in a satisfactory manner or shall be disposed of off the right of way in areas secured by the contractor. The contractor shall be responsible for compliance with all federal, state and local laws in the disposal of excess or unsuitable 1 17material. Rock or boulders greater than 24 inches shall not be used routinely in constructing sideslope embankments. A distinct shoulder line shall be maintained by keeping all such waste material at least 24 inches below the finished shoulder elevation, and specific density control will not be required. 203.4.16 Placement of Embankment. Roadway embankment shall be placed in layers not exceeding 8 inches , an uncompacted measurement, and shall be compacted as specified before the next layer is placed. The layers shall be placed approximately parallel to both the proposed profile grade and to the finished roadbed. Effective spreading equipment shall be used on each lift to obtain uniform thickness prior to compacting. Continuous leveling and manipulating will be required during compacting operations. Construction equipment shall be routed uniformly over the entire surface of each layer. Occasional rocks and boulders greater than 24 inches shall be dispersed to allow for uniform compaction between them. 203.4.16.1 Occasional stones or rock fragments exceeding the thickness of the 8-inch layer shall be disposed of by being incorporated into the embankment outside the limits of the proposed surfaced traffic lanes. The thickness of the layer in these areas may be increased if necessary to accommodate the stones, but shall not exceed 12 inches, an uncompacted measurement. The stones or rock fragments shall be placed such that there is no nesting. 203.4.16.2 Lifts may be increased to a maximum of 12 inches , an uncompacted measurement, for berms, filling of old channels, waste or similar areas, and any roadway or approach for which a granular-type surface is proposed. These areas shall be compacted by uniformly distributing all equipment movements over the entire area, and specific density control will not be required. Compaction performed in these areas will be at the contractor’s expense. 203.4.17 Rock Embankment. If the excavated material consists predominantly of rock fragments of such a size that the material cannot be placed in layers of the prescribed thickness, such material shall be placed in the embankment in layers having a thickness of the approximate average size of the larger rocks but not exceeding 24 inches . Rocks or boulders too large to permit placing in a 24-inch layer shall be reduced in size as necessary to permit this placement. Rock shall not be dumped in place, but shall be distributed by blading or dozing in a manner to ensure proper placement in final position in the embankment. Construction equipment shall be routed uniformly over the entire surface of each layer. The spalls and smaller stone fragments shall be left on the surface of each layer as formed. 203.4.18 Rigid or Flexible Pavements. If the specified or proposed surfacing consists of a rigid or flexible-type pavement, the top consolidated rock layer for the full width between roadbed slopes shall be finished to the same limits as shown on the plans for undergrading in rock cuts. If rigid pavement is to be constructed without an aggregate base, the material requirements of Sec 203.4.4.2.1 (a) or (b) shall govern the construction of the area between the bottom of the pavement and the top of the top consolidated rock layer. Any embankment necessary outside the limits of the pavement shall be constructed of suitable earth or as otherwise specified in the contract. 203.5 Compaction of Embankment and Treatment of Cut Areas with Moisture and Density Control. AASHTO T 99, Method C, replacing any material retained on a 3/4-inch sieve, as provided therein, or MoDOT Test Method TM 40 will be used as the Standard Compaction Test for determining the moisture density relations of soils. The optimum moisture as determined by the Standard Compaction Test may be used as a guide in determining the proper moisture content at which each soil type should be compacted. Water shall be added or removed as necessary to permit obtaining the required density and moisture control. The field density of the embankment after compaction will be determined in accordance with AASHTO T 191 or T 205, using the total material or T 310, for wet density. The volume of the test hole may be reduced as necessary to accommodate available testing equipment. If nuclear density methods are used, moisture content will be determined in accordance with AASHTO T 239, except that a moisture correction factor will be determined for each soil in accordance with MoDOT Test Method TM 35. The calculated density obtained in a field density test will be compared with the maximum density as directed by the Standard Compaction Test to determine the percent of compaction attained. 203.5.1 Maximum Density Compaction Requirements. If payment of Compacting Embankment or Embankment in Place is specified as a contract pay item, compaction to at least 90 percent of maximum density, as determined by the Standard Compaction Test, will be required in the following areas: 1 18(a) All roadway embankments except as otherwise provided in the following sections: Secs 203.4.14, 203.4.15, 203.4.16.2, 203.5.3, 203.5.4, 203.5.5 and 203.5.7
204.10.1 Description. This work shall consist of installing settlement gauges for the purpose of obtaining
foundation settlement data during and following placement of embankment and surcharge construction. An estimated number of settlement gauges will be indicated in the contract. The exact number and locations will be determined by the engineer.
204.10.2 Material. A settlement gauge shall consist of the following:
204.10.3 Construction Requirements.
204.10.3 1 The first section of the 3/4-inch pipe shall be firmly attached to the plate. The distance from the top
of plate to the top of pipe will be accurately measured and recorded by the engineer.
204.10.3 2 An excavation, slightly larger than the plate, shall be made to a depth approximately 18 inches below
the natural ground surface. Care shall be exercised during excavation to ensure that the bottom of the pit is level and that the material at this location is undisturbed. The pit bottom shall be covered with a layer of Portland cement mortar, approximately 3 inches thick, and the plate bedded therein in such position that the riser pipe is vertical. After the mortar has set, the cover pipe, cut approximately 6 inches shorter, shall be slipped over and centered around the riser pipe. The backfill shall then be placed in 6-inch layers and thoroughly compacted. The contractor shall notify the engineer when the installation is complete. No embankment shall be placed around the gauge until the elevation of the top of the riser has been determined by the engineer.
204.10.3 3 Embankment material in the immediate vicinity of the settlement gauge pipe shall be placed and
compacted in accordance with Sec 726.3.4. When the elevation of the embankment reaches a level approximately one foot below the top of the cover pipe, the engineer shall be notified and the next section of riser pipe and cover pipe shall be installed in the engineer's presence. As the height of the embankment increases, this procedure shall be repeated until the embankment and surcharge is completed, and the pipe sections, both riser and cover, extend approximately 2 feet above the surface of the completed embankment and surcharge.
204.10.3 4 All necessary precautions shall be taken to keep the alignment of the riser pipe and cover pipe
maintained in a vertical position at all times. The contractor shall operate equipment such that the settlement gauges are not damaged or displaced. Protective barriers shall be erected when directed by the engineer. Settlement gauges shall be maintained in a satisfactory operating condition until after placement of the embankment and surcharge and until, in the judgment of the engineer, the settlement readings are no longer necessary. Any damaged gauges shall be repaired or replaced by and at the contractor's expense.
204.10.3 5 The engineer will obtain and record all measurements and elevations necessary for accurate
determination of settlement data during and after completion of embankment and surcharge.
204.10.4 Basis of Payment. Accepted settlement gauges, complete in place, will be paid for at the contract unit
price. No direct payment will be made for any devices required to protect the gauges. SECTION 204. 20 PORE PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICES.
204.20.1 Description. This work shall consist of placing and maintaining pore pressure measurement devices as
shown on the plans for obtaining foundation pore pressure measurements during the placement of embankment. Pore pressure measurement devices, locations, elevations and limits of embankment subject to control by each device will be shown on the plans. 124204.20.2 Equipment. Pore pressure measuring devices shall consist of the following types:
204.20.2 1 The pneumatic transducer, jacketed tubing, and necessary pressurizing and gauging equipment for
Type A installations will be furnished by the Commission without cost to the contractor upon two weeks written notice preceding the date of installation. The balance of the material for the Type A installation shall be furnished by the contractor. All material for the Type B installation shall be furnished by the contractor, except for the electrical sounding device.
204.20.3 Construction Requirements.
204.20.3 1 The contractor shall be responsible for the installation, furnishing all incidental material, providing
all necessary protection of the installation, and replacement in the event of damage, including cost of any replacement equipment furnished by the Commission. In the event of damage to the installation, the engineer may require suspension of embankment construction in the controlled area until the contractor has restored the installation to satisfactory working order. No embankment may be placed until the installation is complete and tested to the satisfaction of the engineer.
204.20.3 2 A hole of no less than 5 inches or no more than 8 inches in diameter shall be drilled to Elevation “B”
as shown on the plans. If necessary, casing shall be used to prevent sloughing of material from the walls of the hole and contamination of the walls or bottom of the hole by sloughed material. The outer diameter of the casing shall be no smaller than the diameter of the hole. The casing shall have no externally coupled joints in the bottom 10 feet.
204.20.3 3 If casing is required, the hole shall be washed to the bottom with clean water circulated through the
bit until the discharge is clear. Clean sand shall then be poured into the hole to the approximate depth shown on the plans. The assembled pore pressure measurement device shall then be lowered to the device’s indicated position with care to avoid contamination with soil from the side of the hole, and additional sand shall be placed around the device to Elevation “A” as shown on the plans. During these steps, any casing shall be pulled ahead of the backfill in increments of 6 to 24 inches as necessary to prevent collapse or sloughing of the hole. The hole shall be maintained full of clean water during these steps to at least the elevation of the top of the sand chamber. The creation of pockets of soil, air or voids in the sand backfill shall be avoided.
204.20.3 4 After sand is placed to the specified elevation, the hole shall be backfilled with wetted, plastic
bentonite clay as the casing is withdrawn, for no less than 4 feet above the top of the sand filled chamber. If necessary, the clay shall be worked by hand into plastic balls to be dropped into the hole and tamped into a coherent mass. An acceptable alternate is the use of preformed dry bentonite pellets. In dry installation, dry granular bentonite may be tamped in place. The remainder of the hole shall be filled with a thick slurry of bentonite.
204.20.3 5 At natural ground level, or as otherwise directed by the engineer, four layers of 3/4-inch exterior
grade plywood, 4 x 4 feet , nailed and clinched together with rustproof nails, and with a 3-inch diameter hole cut at the center shall be centered over the installation after the ground is smoothed and leveled with sand. A closet flange or other suitable receptacle shall be securely fastened to the plywood over the 3-inch diameter hole to securely receive a 5-foot length of 3-inch iron or steel casing. Earth or sand shall be compacted about the casing in 6-inch lifts with care to avoid misalignment after the engineer has established the elevation of the plywood slab and the top of the casing.
204.20.3 6 Upon completion, each installation shall be tested. Type A installations shall be tested in accordance
with recommendations of the transducer manufacturer. Type B installations shall be tested by dropping a weighted line through the standpipe to check for possible obstructions. The standpipe shall then be filled with water and periodic readings made of the water level in the standpipe until the level of natural groundwater is reached. If less than a 70 percent drop in head is experienced in the first 24 hours, the standpipe shall be flushed 125and retested. Records of rate of head loss shall be kept for subsequent evaluation of possible time lags in the response of water levels to embankment placement.
204.20.3 7 The engineer may require the installation of additional pore pressure measurement devices, at the
contract unit price, within any area subject to control by such devices, at any time during construction of the embankment. The engineer will determine the type of device, location and elevation of additional installations. Any such additional pore pressure measurement devices shall govern the rate of construction in the same manner as the original devices. The reference pressure levels for additional devices shall be either that of the original devices or as determined from boreholes located outside the loaded area, as directed by the engineer.
204.20.4 Pore Pressure Measurements and Records.
204.20.4 1 The engineer will make and record all observations and measurements required to determine natural
ground water pressures and pore water pressures induced by embankment construction. The pressure of the natural ground water existing at the time of installation and prior to placement of any embankment will be used as a reference to determine pore pressures induced by subsequent embankment placement. The engineer may subsequently require borings outside the loaded area to facilitate observations to determine if the natural groundwater table has lowered due to seasonal or climatic variations. Such observations may be used to lower, but not raise, the initial reference groundwater pressure.
204.20.4 2 The engineer will make all records of groundwater and pore water pressures readily available to the
contractor for guidance in the planning of the contractor's work.
204.20.4 3 If foundation pore pressure, in excess of pressure from the natural water table, equals or exceeds 35
percent of the unit pressure of the embankment in place over the installation at any time, placement of embankment shall be immediately suspended. Construction shall not resume until such excess pressure declines to 25 percent of embankment pressure, unless otherwise authorized by the engineer.
204.20.4 4 After the embankment reaches an elevation equal to 60 percent of the maximum height, the
contractor shall control the rate of construction in such a manner that foundation pore pressure, in excess of pressure from the natural water table, will not exceed 35 percent of the unit pressure of the embankment in place over the installation at any time. An example of pressure relationships follows: Soil embankment with an average wet density of 125 pounds per cubic foot is equal to twice the unit weight of water. A foot of such embankment thus has a potential to create, at most, 2 feet of water rise in a standpipe, or a 0.87 psi increase in a Type A installation. The contractor shall anticipate the maximum possible effect of any load to be added. Type B installations may exhibit some time lag in rate of response to a pressure increment. Records of pore pressure response during placement of the first 60 percent of embankment height shall be examined for evidence of such lag. The time required for dissipation of head during testing will also be indicative of the rate of response.
204.20.4 5 When embankment has advanced to within approximately one foot of the top of the casing, the
casing and the 1/2-inch PVC pipe for the Type B installations, shall be advanced in 5-foot increments. No extension shall be made without the engineer's approval. PVC pipe extensions shall be made using solvent welded couplings exercising care to make smooth, squared cuts with all burrs removed, in accordance with recommendations of the pipe and solvent cement manufacturers. Pneumatic tubing leads used with Type A installations shall be long enough to permit extension, without connections, to the top of the embankment or surcharge. Excess tubing shall be stored in a steel container attached to the last casing extension as shown on the plans.
204.20.5 Settlement Records. The engineer will make and record all measurements and elevations necessary,
including elevations of the plywood plate and all casing extensions, for use in establishing a settlement record at the site of the pore pressure measurement device. The 3-inch outer steel casing will be used for this purpose. Care shall be taken to ensure the tightest possible coupling connections, using pipe wrenches, without rotating the bottom pipe. Settlement records obtained in this manner may be used to satisfy such settlement rate requirements as may be outlined in the contract.
204.20.6 Basis of Payment.
204.20.6 1 The contract unit price shall include all effects, impacts and cumulative impacts of possible restraints
inherent in the use of these devices upon the rate of construction. No additional compensation will be made for 126any impact, cumulative impacts, inefficiency or any costs incurred as a result of compliance with this requirement.
204.20.6 2 Accepted pore pressure measurement devices, complete in place, will be paid for at the contract unit
price per each. 127SECTION 205 MODIFIED SUBGRADE 205.1 Description. This work shall consist of modifying a subgrade to improve stability. This work shall be performed as specified in the contract, at the contractor’s option with concurrence from the engineer or at the direction of the engineer. 205.2 Material. All material shall be in accordance with Division 1000, Material Details, and specifically as follows. 205.2.1 The modifying material shall be hydrated lime or other chemical material, a geogrid, a geotextile, or other material approved by the engineer. 205.2.1.1 If hydrated lime is used, the contractor shall furnish or require the supplier to furnish with each load certification that the product is in accordance with AASHTO M 216. 205.2.1.2 If chemical modifying material other than hydrated lime is used, the material and application plan shall be approved by the engineer prior to use. 205.2.2 If a geogrid or geotextile is used the product type and layout plan shall be approved by the engineer prior to use. 205.3 Construction Requirements. 205.3.1 Application. 205.3.1.1 If not directed by the engineer or specified in the contract, the contractor may determine the locations, amount of modifying material and depth of application, within the limits of this specification and subject to concurrence from the engineer. 205.3.1.2 Where performed, subgrade modification shall be done to all areas uniformly and laterally between outside shoulder points plus 18 inches on each side. When the chemically modified areas are stopped and started, there shall be a longitudinal transition zone at the rate of 30 feet per 6 inches of modified depth. The transition may be made by reducing modifying material or by mixing depth. 205.3.1.3 Chemical modifying material shall be spread in uniform and regular patterns. No material shall be applied if the material is being blown from the work area. 205.3.1.4 The application rate of the chemical modifying material shall be approved by the engineer. 205.3.2 Compaction. When chemically modified, the subgrade shall be uniformly mixed with the modifying material. Mixing and compaction shall continue until the subgrade is shown to have suitable compaction as demonstrated by the roller equipment. Density and moisture testing will ordinarily be waived for subgrade chemically modified under this specification, except that should compaction not be demonstrated to the engineer's satisfaction, the engineer reserves the right to run such tests as necessary to ensure density. When stabilized with a geogrid or geotextile, the subgrade will require recompaction to the specified density and moisture content only of it is disturbed by the goegrid or geotextile placement. 205.4 Method of Measurement. Measurement of modified subgrade will be made to the nearest square yard, including transition areas. Subgrade meeting all other requirements, suitable for the placing of base material and having modifying material incorporated as specified herein, will be paid for at the contract unit price per square yard except as noted herein. 205.5 Basis of Payment. 205.5.1 If included in the contract, payment for modified subgrade will be made per square yard of modified subgrade at the contract unit price. No direct payment will be made for the required modifying material. 205.5.2 If performed at the option of the contractor, payment for modified subgrade will be made at the invoiced material cost from the supplier, and no reimbursement will be made for incorporation or for processing. 128205.5.3 If modified subgrade is not included in the contract and is directed by the engineer, payment will be made in accordance with Sec 104.3. 205.5.4 Reimbursement for transition areas will be made at the contract unit price per square yard for 1/2 the area of the transition. 205.5.5 Reimbursement will be limited to modified areas, the width of the pavement and shoulders, plus 18 inches on each side. 205.5.6 Only one payment for modified subgrade will be made for any area, regardless of the depth of stabilized material, number of applications or other circumstances. 129SECTION 206 EXCAVATION FOR STRUCTURES 206.1 Description. This work shall consist of the necessary excavation for the foundations of all structures, removal and disposal of all excavated material, backfilling around the completed structures, and all related work. 206.1.1 All removal work that might endanger the new structure shall be completed before any work on the new structure is started. Partial removals of any structure or adjustments to any utility shall be made with care to preserve the value of the retained portions. Work around any live utility shall be done in such a manner that uninterrupted service is maintained. 206.1.2 Excavated material that is unsuitable for backfill and embankments, and excess material not required for either, shall be disposed of. Excavated material shall not be dumped into the channel of a stream. 206.2 Depth of Excavation. The elevation of the bottoms of footings as shown on the plans shall be considered an approximate elevation, and the engineer by written order may make changes in plan elevations and dimensions of footings as necessary to secure a satisfactory foundation. 206.3 Foundation Stabilization and Tests. 206.3.1 The contractor shall furnish and place sand, rock, gravel or other suitable granular backfill material to replace unsuitable material encountered below box culvert slabs or below the foundation elevation of the structures. 206.3.2 The contractor shall stabilize suitable foundation material or form the bottom of pile footings, if necessary to obtain a stable foundation. The contractor shall assist in driving sounding rods or shall drill test holes to permit an adequate inspection of the foundation subgrade. The depth of the excavation, the character of the material and the condition of the foundation shall be approved by the engineer before any concrete is placed in the footing. 206.4 Construction Requirements. 206.4.1 Foundation Excavation Protection. Methods shall be used in excavating for foundations of structures that will ensure maintaining the stability of the material adjacent to the excavation. Sheeting, cribbing, timbering or bracing shall be placed by the contractor where indicated on the plans and wherever considered necessary. The contractor shall ensure the adequacy of all sheeting, cribbing, timbering or bracing used. 206.4.2 Foundation Key. Foundations for structures and retaining walls shall be free of loose material, and the footing shall be placed on undisturbed material. Footings shall be keyed no less than 6 inches into rock (limestone, dolomite or other suitable material with qu ≥ 100 ksf), and no less than 18 inches into weak rock (shale or other suitable material with 5 ksf ≤ qu ≤ 100 ksf)other suitable material specified for spread footings. Excavation in rock or weak rock for the key shall be made as near as practical to the size of the footing, or of the key, as shown on the plans. When placing the footing, the key portion shall be cast against the vertical, undisturbed face of the rock or weak rock. If side forms are necessary for footings, the forms shall be removed approximately 24 hours after placing the concrete, and the excavation immediately backfilled to the top of the footing. All cavities or crevices shall be cleaned out and filled with concrete in accordance with Sec 703.3.3.9, or spanned with a reinforced concrete beam, as directed by the engineer. 206.4.3 Foundation Subgrade. Care shall be taken to avoid disturbing the material below the bottom of the footings where the structure is founded on material other than rock, and final removal to grade shall not be made until just prior to placing concrete. Where foundation piles are required, the excavation of each pit shall be completed before the piles are driven, and after the driving is completed, all loose and displaced material shall be removed. 206.4.4 Culverts on Rock. If rock is encountered under a portion of the bottom slab of a concrete box-type structure, the rock shall be removed to at least 6 inches below the bottom of the slab and curtain walls, and backfilled with material similar to that under the remainder of the structure. 130206.4.5 Footing Construction. Concrete footings for structures shall be placed on foundation material that is reasonably dry in the judgment of the engineer. The contractor shall perform all draining, bailing or pumping operations, drive any sheeting, and construct any cofferdams or cribs necessary to obtain this condition. Pumping from the interior of any foundation enclosure shall be done in a manner to preclude the possibility of the movement of water, or other fluids or semi-fluids, through any fresh concrete. If necessary, the footing form shall be made watertight and shall be sealed around the bottom, and all pumping done between the footing form and the wall of the enclosure. 206.4.6 Footing Drainage. All holes, pits or sumps resulting from excavating operations shall be kept drained or pumped out until the completion of the work. No ponding of water around footings on other than rock will be permitted. 206.4.7 Cofferdams. In accordance with the contract, the contractor shall provide cofferdams, consisting of sheet piling, or the contractor may propose alternate methods for the construction of the bridge foundations. Alternate designs or methods may consist of, but are not limited to: the construction of cofferdams, seal courses, over excavation, well point systems, dewatering and drainage diversion. The method proposed by the contractor shall stay within the right of way limits provided in the contract. The interior dimensions of cofferdams shall provide sufficient clearance for the construction of forms, and ample room for a sump and for pumping outside the footing forms. Cofferdams that have been tilted or moved laterally during the process of sinking shall be corrected to provide the necessary clearance. Cofferdams shall be constructed to protect the work against damage from sudden rising waters and to prevent damage to the foundation by erosion. Cofferdams shall be removed after the completion of the substructure unit, unless specific authority is given for the cofferdam to remain in place. The contractor shall submit the proposed method of cofferdam construction to the engineer prior to beginning work. 206.4.8 Temporary Shoring. When temporary shoring is required by the contract documents, the contractor shall provide temporary shoring as needed, consisting of sheet piling or alternate methods for the construction of roadway fills, mechanically stabilized earth walls or structures. The contractor shall submit the proposed method of temporary shoring construction to the engineer prior to beginning work. 206.4.9 Seal Courses. Seal courses will be required if indicated on the plans or if conditions are encountered that, in the judgment of the engineer, render it impractical to dewater the foundation area. The dimensions of the seal course shall be adequate to seal the foundation area. Pumping will not be permitted while excavating, pile driving or placing the seal course, and not until, by determination of the engineer, the seal course has attained sufficient strength to withstand the hydrostatic pressure. If seal courses are shown on the plans, and the engineer determines that the footings may be satisfactorily placed without sealing, the contractor shall dewater any completed excavation for investigation purposes. The seal course designs shown on the plans are based on the use of sheet piling in construction of the cofferdams at the indicated water elevations. If the contractor’s proposed alternate method includes cofferdams that are to be constructed with seal courses, the contractor shall prepare construction plans that are properly designed for the site conditions and water elevations that may be encountered during footing construction. These plans shall be signed and sealed by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Missouri and shall be provided to the engineer for review a minimum of two weeks prior to the beginning of actual footing construction. The contractor is responsible for the safety and performance of the contractor’s proposed system. 206.4.10 Backfill. Backfill material shall be free from large or frozen lumps, wood or other extraneous material. All spaces excavated and not occupied by the new structure or by porous backfill shall be refilled with earth to the original ground surface or to the finished ground lines shown on the plans. The backfill at end bents, walls or other units that fall within the limits of the roadbed shall be placed in successive 6-inch layers and compacted to the same density required for the adjacent roadbed. Dry footings at interior bents shall be backfilled and compacted to no less than the density of the adjacent undisturbed material. Precautions shall be taken to prevent any wedging action against the masonry. The slope bounding the excavation, if steeper than 6:1 shall be stepped or serrated. Backfill placed around culverts and piers shall be kept at approximately the same elevation on opposing sides. Drains consisting of 5 cubic feet of coarse aggregate shall be placed at weep holes, except where porous backfill is required. Backfill material shall not be placed against end bents of bridges, on sides of box culverts or behind retaining walls until the concrete has attained the strength specified in Sec 703.3.2.13. Backfill material shall not be placed higher behind than in front of end bents until the superstructure, including the bridge deck, is in place. Until the grade is in place, drainage shall be maintained away from the end bent backwall by constructing a 6:1 or steeper slope away from the backwall for a minimum distance of 3 feet and by providing a lateral path for all water to flow off the roadbed section. 131206.4.11 Porous Backfill. Porous backfill, in accordance with Sec 1009, shall be placed behind abutments, wings and retaining walls where specified and shown on the plans. Porous backfill shall be placed and consolidated in successive 12-inch layers such that the porous backfill will not become mixed with other backfill material. 206.4.12 Flowable Backfill. Flowable backfill will be required when indicated on the plans. The contractor may, with approval from the engineer, use flowable backfill as an alternate to compacted backfill for structures, pipes or utility cuts. Flowable backfill intended for any other use by the contractor shall also be approved by the engineer. Flowable backfill shall not be used to surround drainage systems such as vertical drains or edge drains. Flowable backfill shall be in accordance with Sec 621. 206.4.13 Excavation Classification. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, excavation for structures will be classified as Class 1 Excavation, Class 1 Excavation in Rock, Class 2 Excavation, Class 2 Excavation in Rock, Class 3 Excavation, Class 3 Excavation in Rock, Class 4 Excavation and Class 4 Excavation in Rock. In general, Class 1 Excavation and Class 2 Excavation will apply to excavation for bridges and large retaining walls. Class 3 Excavation will apply to excavation for pipe culvert installations, utilities, retrofit pipe culverts, drop inlets, and manholes. Class 4 Excavation will apply to excavation for box culverts, small retaining walls and other miscellaneous structures. Class 1 Excavation will include all excavation above a specified elevation indicated on the plans while Class 2 Excavation will include all excavation below this specified elevation. The classification of excavation for all structures will be shown on the plans. 206.4.14 Culvert Cleanout. When cleanout of a culvert is specified, all silt, trash, rocks, broken concrete and any other debris shall be removed for the entire limits such that flow in the culvert is restored to full capacity. If a manual inspection cannot easily be made due to bends in the culvert, or excessive length, the contractor shall provide the engineer with a video inspection recording in accordance with Sec 724.3.4. 206.5 Method of Measurement. 206.5.1 Measurement of Class 1 and Class 2 Excavation will be made to the nearest 1/2 cubic yard for each structure of that volume of material actually removed from within the limits established in this section. The volume measured will be limited by vertical planes 18 inches outside of and parallel with the neat lines of footings, tie beams or overhangs of structures classed as bridges or retaining walls. The upper limits of the volume measured will be the existing ground line or the lower limits of the roadway, drainage or channel excavation, including any allowable overbreak, whichever is lower. Where roadway spill fills are required to be placed and compacted before driving piles or before constructing bridge substructure units, any required additional excavation for the substructure units will be measured from the spill slope. For stream crossings, the measured volume will not include water, but will include mud, muck and other semi-solids. The lower limits of the volume measured will be the bottom of the footings, bottom of seal courses, or 18 inches below the bottom of tie beams and overhangs. Excavation for columns above drilled shafts will be Class 1 Excavation, with measurement made of the volume of material actually removed above the top of the drilled shaft. The volume measured will not exceed that of a cylinder having a diameter 36 inches greater than that of the column above the drilled shaft. No measurement will be made of the material excavated for the drilled shaft below the bottom of the column. 206.5.2 Final measurement of Class 3 Excavation for pipe culverts, utilities, retrofit pipe culverts, drop inlets or manholes will not be made unless there is an authorized change from plan location resulting in a different quantity or there is an authorized change averaging more than 6 inches in the foundation elevation. If a revision is made or an appreciable error is found in the contract quantity, the revision or correction will be computed and added to or deducted from the contract quantity. Measurement of Class 3 Excavation will be made to the nearest cubic yard for each structure of that volume of material actually removed from within the area bounded by vertical planes 18 inches outside of the outer walls of the structure. The upper limits of the volume measured, will be the existing ground line, or the lower limits of the roadway excavation, whichever is lower. The lower limits of the volume measured will include excavation necessary for pipe bedding. 206.5.3 Measurement of Class 4 Excavation for box culverts classified as bridges will be made to the nearest cubic yard for each structure of that volume of material actually removed from within the area bounded by vertical planes 18 inches outside of the outer walls of box culverts with bottom slabs. The upper limits of the volume measured will be the existing ground line, or the lower limits of the roadway excavation, whichever is lower. Class 4 Excavation under embankments and in channel changes will be measured from the original 132ground surface unless otherwise designated on the plans. For box culverts without bottom slabs, measurement will be made as above except no material below plan flow line will be included that is outside of the area bounded by vertical planes 18 inches each side of and parallel with the neat lines of the walls or footings. Final measurement of Class 4 Excavation for box culverts not classified as bridges, small retaining walls and miscellaneous structures will not be made unless there is an authorized change from plan location resulting in a different quantity or there is an authorized change averaging more than 6 inches in the foundation elevation. If a revision is made or an appreciable error is found in the contract quantity, the revision or correction will be computed and added to or deducted from the contract quantity. Excavation classification will not change if a substitution of a drainage structure type is approved. 206.5.4 Where concrete in footings or walls is cast against the vertical faces of the excavation, the neat lines of the concrete footings will be considered the limits of excavation for that depth in which the concrete is in contact with the excavation, and no measurement will be made of any excavation or overbreak beyond the neat footing lines. 206.5.5 Final measurement of the porous backfill will not be made except for authorized changes during construction, or where appreciable errors are found in the contract quantity. Where required, the volume of porous backfill will be computed to the nearest cubic yard at each structure from dimensions on the plans.

The contract unit price for the original mixture shall be used.
403.11 Field Adjustments of Job Mix Formulas. When test results indicate the mixture produced does not
meet the specification requirements, the contractor may field adjust the job mix formula as noted herein. Field adjustments may consist of changing the percent binder as listed on the original approved job mix by no more than 0.3 percent. Additional fractions of material or new material will not be permitted as field adjustments. The engineer shall be notified immediately when any change is made in the cold feed settings, the hot bin settings or the binder content. A new Gsb shall be calculated using the new aggregate percentages. The gradation of the adjusted mixture shall meet the requirements of the mixture type specified in the contract. When the binder content is adjusted more than 0.3 percent, the mixture will be considered out of specification, and a new mix design shall be established.
403.11.1 Field Mix Redesign. When a new mix design will be required, the contractor will be permitted to
establish the new mix design in the field. The mixture shall be designed in accordance with AASHTO R 35 or AASHTO R 46 and shall meet the mix design requirements, including TSR.

403.11.1 2 Resume Production. No mixture shall be placed on the project until the new field mix design is
approved.
403.12 Application of Prime or Tack. The prime coat, if specified, shall be applied in accordance with Sec
408. A tack coat is required on all existing pavement and shoulder surfaces that will be overlaid with a bituminous mixture. A tack coat is also required between all lifts of bituminous pavements placed within the driving and turn lanes, unless otherwise specified in the contract. All construction requirements of a tacked surface shall be in accordance with Sec 407, and specified herein. The tack coat shall be applied uniformly and shall completely cover the surface upon which the bituminous mixture is to be placed. Placement of a bituminous mixture shall not be placed upon a tacked surface that is not uniformly covered or surfaces that have experienced excessive loss of tack due to tracking. Re-application of tack due to excess tracking or non-uniform coverage shall be at the contractor’s expense.
403.13 Spreading and Finishing. The base course, primed or tacked surface, or preceding course or layer shall
be cleaned of all dirt, packed soil or any other foreign material prior to spreading the asphaltic mixture. If lumps are present or a crust of mixture has formed, the entire load will be rejected. The thickness and width of each course shall conform to the typical section in the contract. The contractor may elect to construct each course in 183multiple layers. The minimum compacted thickness shall be 0.75 inches for SP048, 1.25 inches for SP095, 1.75 inches for SP125, 2 inches for SP190, and 3 inches for SP250.
403.13.1 Paving Widths. The following shall apply for roadways constructed under traffic. For pavements
having a width of 16 to 24 feet, inclusive, the asphaltic concrete pavement shall be laid in lanes approximately one half the full width of the completed pavement, and the full width shall be completed as soon as practical. Unless otherwise permitted, a single lane of any course shall not be constructed to a length that cannot be completed to full width of the pavement the succeeding operating day. For pavements greater than 24 feet wide, single lane width construction shall be limited to one day's production and completion to full width shall be accomplished as soon as practical. Uneven pavement shall be left in place for no more than seven days, unless approved by the engineer. Removal of pavement to be in accordance with this specification shall be at the contractor’s expense.
403.13.2 Segregation. No segregation will be permitted in handling the mixture at the plant, from the truck or
during spreading operations on the roadbed. All layers shall be feathered out, by hand raking if necessary, in transitioning the depth of the surface to meet present grades at bridges or ends of projects, to provide a uniform, smooth riding surface free of irregularities. Where only the top layer of the surfacing continues across a bridge, the bottom layers shall be feathered out. In situations where there is a dispute in the existence of segregation, the area in question will be tested in accordance with MoDOT Test Method TM 75. Mixture production shall immediately cease if either criteria of MoDOT Test Method TM 75 fail. Segregated mixture shall be removed and replaced to the limits determined by the engineer.
403.13.3 Release to Traffic. If the asphaltic concrete construction consists of more than a single layer, each
layer shall be compacted as specified and allowed to cool to the ambient temperature before the next layer is placed. The contractor shall keep traffic off the asphaltic concrete until the surface of the asphaltic concrete is 140 F or below and the asphaltic concrete has cooled sufficiently to prevent flushing of the asphalt binder to the surface, marking or distorting the surface or breaking down the edges.
403.13.4 Draindown. Evidence of asphalt binder separation or draindown at delivery will be cause for rejection.
403.13.5 Shoulder Substitution. When a Sec 403 mixture is specified for traffic lanes, the same mixture may
be used for the adjacent shoulder, subject to the density requirements in Sec 403.5.2.
403.14 Spot Wedging and Leveling Course. The engineer will specify the locations and thickness of spot
wedging and the thickness of leveling course to obtain the smoothest possible riding surface. This procedure may result in spot wedging operations over small areas with feather-edging at high points and ends of wedge areas. Rigid control of the placement thickness of the leveling course shall be required. Leveling course, consisting of a layer of asphaltic concrete of variable thickness used to superelevate curves and eliminate irregularities in the existing base, shall be spread uniformly to the specified profile grade and cross section. The mixture shall be uniformly spread and compacted, with only minor segregation as accepted by the engineer. Type SP125 or finer mixtures, as applicable, shall be used for the spot wedging and for the leveling course.
403.15 Compaction. After the asphaltic mixture has been spread, struck off and surface irregularities adjusted,
the asphaltic mixture shall be compacted thoroughly and uniformly by rolling to obtain the required compaction while the mixture is in a workable condition. Excessive rolling, to the extent of aggregate degradation, will not be permitted. Rollers shall not be used in the vibratory mode when the mixture temperature is below 225 F. When warm mix technology is used, as approved by the engineer, rollers shall not be used in the vibratory mode when the mixture temperature is below 200 F .
403.15.1 Rolling. Any displacement occurring as a result of starting, stopping or changing direction of a roller,
or from other causes, shall be avoided. Excess liquid, to prevent adhesion of the mixture to the rollers, will not be permitted. Diesel fuel, fuel oil or other detrimental products shall not be used as wetting agents. Along forms, curbs, headers, walls and other places not accessible to the roller, the mixture shall be thoroughly compacted with hot hand tampers, smoothing irons or with mechanical tampers.
403.15.2 Defective Mixture. Any mixture that becomes loose and broken, mixed with dirt or is in any way
defective shall be removed and replaced with fresh, hot mixture, which shall be compacted to conform with the surrounding area. Any area showing an excess or deficiency of asphalt binder shall be removed and replaced. 184403.15.3 Non-Traffic Areas. Sec 403 mixtures used for surfacing medians and similar areas, shoulders adjacent to rigid or flexible pavement and shoulders adjacent to resurfaced pavement shall be compacted to the specified densities for the mixture. Once an established rolling pattern has been demonstrated to provide the required density for shoulders, at the engineer's discretion, the pattern may be used in lieu of density tests provided no changes in the material, typical location or temperatures are made. Regardless of the method, density will still be required and subject to testing as deemed necessary by the engineer. In lieu of roller and density requirements, temporary bypasses to be maintained at the expense of the contractor shall be thoroughly compacted. The rolling shall be performed at proper time intervals and shall be continued until there is no visible evidence of further consolidation.
403.15.4 Density Measurement. Measurements for determining the in-place density of the mixture shall be
taken no later than the day following placement. Measurements not obtained within the prescribed time limits shall be subject to the requirements of Sec 403.22. If a core is taken, material from underlying layers that remain adhered to the core shall be removed in a manner that does not harm the integrity of the specimen. If the contractor elects to place a lift of mixture greater than six times the nominal maximum aggregate size, cores shall be cut in half and the density of each half determined separately.
403.16 Joints. Transverse joints shall be formed by any method that will produce a dense, vertical section for
use when laying is resumed. When a transverse vertical edge is to be left and opened to traffic, a temporary depth transition shall be built as approved by the engineer. The joint formed when the fresh mixture is placed shall be dense, well sealed, and the grade, line and surface texture of the succeeding surface shall conform to that of the joined surface. If directed by the engineer, the transverse joint shall be painted with a light coating of liquid asphalt. Hand manipulation of the mixture shall be minimized to avoid unsightly surface texture.
403.16.1 Joint Composition. Longitudinal joints shall be formed by the use of an edging plate fixed on both
sides of the finishing machine. Care shall be taken to obtain a well bonded and sealed longitudinal joint by placing the hot mixture in a manner ensuring maximum compaction at this point. If directed by the engineer for properly sealing the longitudinal joint, a light coating of bituminous material shall be applied to the exposed edge before the joint is made. The minimum density of all traveled way pavement within 6 inches of a longitudinal joint, including the pavement on the traveled way side of the shoulder joint, shall not be less than 2.0 percent below the specified density when unconfined. The density of the longitudinal joint when confined will be included in the evaluation of the remainder of the mat. Each side of the joint shall be flush and along true lines.
403.16.2 Joint Offset. The longitudinal joint in any layer shall offset that in the layer immediately below by a
minimum of 6 inches; except, the joints in the completed surfacing shall be at the lane lines of the traveled way or other required placement width outside the travel lane. The placement width shall be adjusted such that pavement marking shall not fall on a longitudinal joint.

403.19.3 1 Test Method Modification.
403.19.3 1.1 Binder Ignition Modification. Asphalt content determination in accordance with AASHTO T
308, Section 6.9.1 shall be modified by adding the following: If the calibration factor exceeds 1.0 percent, lower the test temperature to 800 ± 8 F and repeat test. Use the calibration factor obtained at 800 F even if it exceeds 1.0 percent. If RAP is used, the binder ignition oven shall be calibrated in accordance with MoDOT Test 189Method TM 77. At the engineer’s discretion, testing may be waived when production does not exceed 200 tons per day. The contractor shall certify the proper proportions of a previously proven mixture were used.
403.19.3 1.2 Rice Test. When the water absorption of any aggregate fraction is greater than 2.0 percent, the test
method for determining theoretical maximum specific gravity, AASHTO T 209, shall be modified as follows: After completing the procedure in accordance with Section 9.5.1 or 9.5.2, drain water from the sample. To prevent loss of fine particles, decant the water through a paper towel held over the top of the container. Spread the sample before an electric fan to remove surface moisture. Weigh at 15-minute intervals, and when the loss in mass is less than 0.05 percent for this interval, the sample may be considered to be surface dry. This procedure requires about 2 hours and shall be accompanied by intermittent stirring of the sample. Break conglomerations of mixture by hand. Take care to prevent loss of particles of mixture. Calculate the specific gravity of the sample by substituting the final surface-dry mass for A in denominator of Equations 2 or 3.
403.19.3 1.3 Mixture Bulk Specific Gravity. Determining bulk specific gravity using paraffin-coated
specimens, AASHTO T 275, shall not be used when required by AASHTO T 166. Alternate methods are AASHTO T 331 and ASTM D1188. The surface of specimens prepared for testing by these methods may have the surface texture removed by sawing a minimal amount. Specimens shall be securely held in a jig or other clamping device to eliminate distortion and retain a face parallel to the original surface. Measurements for lift thickness shall be made prior to sawing.
403.19.3 2 Miscellaneous Applications.
403.19.3 2.1 Small Quantities. Small quantities are less than 4000 tons for each separate mixture. This applies
to individual projects, individual projects in combination contracts or projects with short discontinuous sections. The contractor has the option to use all testing frequencies in accordance with Sec 403.19.3 or the following shall apply:
403.19.3 2.2 Base Widening and Entrances. For base widening mixture and entrance work, the following will
apply:
403.19.4 Dispute Resolution. When there are significant discrepancies between the engineer's and the
contractor's test results, dispute resolution procedures will be used.
403.19.4 1 Cease Work. The contractor's operations may be required to cease until the dispute is resolved if the
test results indicate the mixture is subject to failure.
403.19.4 2 Third Party Resolution. The first step in dispute resolution will be to identify differences in
procedures and correcting inappropriate procedures before moving to third party resolution. If that does not resolve the dispute, either the contractor or the engineer may request the approved QC Plan third party involvement. The recommendations of the approved third party shall be binding on both the engineer and contractor.
403.19.4 3 Third Party Payment. The contractor shall be responsible for the cost associated with the third
party testing and resolution if the final result indicates the engineer's test results were correct. Likewise the Commission will be responsible for the cost associated with the third party testing and resolution when the final result indicates the contractor's results were correct. 190403.19.4.4 Other Adjustments. The contractor shall not be entitled to any additional payment for costs incurred due to use of the dispute resolution procedures such as, but not limited to, those for delay, cessation of operations, costs to subcontractors, etc. The engineer may give consideration to adjustment of working days if warranted.
403.20 Surface Smoothness. The finish of the pavement surface shall be substantially free from waves or
irregularities and shall be true to the established crown and grade. The pavement surface shall be thoroughly tested for smoothness by profiling or straighedging in accordance with Sec 610.
403.21 General Requirements.
403.21.1 Sequence of Operations. To reduce inconvenience to the traveling public during widening or
surfacing, the contractor will not be permitted to place any final surface course until the base widening, the leveling course and the binder course have been completed throughout the entire combination of sections, unless otherwise authorized by the engineer. The proper condition of the base widening, the leveling course and the binder course, at the time of placing the surface course, shall be the contractor's responsibility.
403.21.2 Pavement Marking. If the contractor's work has obliterated the existing pavement marking on
resurfacing projects open to through traffic, the pavement marking shall be replaced in accordance with Sec 620.
403.21.3 Surfaced Approaches. At locations designated in the contract or as specified by the engineer,
approaches shall be primed in accordance with Sec 408 and surfaced with Type SP125 asphaltic concrete. The asphaltic concrete surface shall be placed in accordance with the details shown on the plans or as specified by the engineer. Approaches shall not be surfaced until after the surface course adjacent to the entrance is completed. Any work required to condition and prepare the subgrade on the approaches will be at the contractor’s expense.
403.21.4 Filling Drain Basins. If shown on the plans, existing drain basins shall be filled to the top of the lip
with plant mix bituminous base course or asphaltic concrete from the pavement edge to the edge of the shoulder. Any difficulty or delay created by this requirement will be at the contractor’s expense.
403.21.5 Pavement Repairs (Blow-Ups). A blow-up will be considered that area where excessive expansion
has resulted in distress to the existing pavement. Blow-ups occurring prior to the application of the tack coat on the existing surface will normally be repaired by the Commission. Blow-ups occurring after the application of the tack coat shall be repaired by the contractor by removing the distressed concrete and replacing the pavement in accordance with Sec 613.
403.22 Method of Measurement.
403.22.1 Weight Determination. The weight of the mixture will be determined from the batch weights if a
batch-type plant is used, and will be determined by weighing each truck load on scales in accordance with Sec 310 if other types of plants are used. Measurement will be made to the nearest 0.1 ton for the total tonnage of material accepted.
403.22.2 Full Depth.
403.22.2 1 The final driving surface area, for the full depth of the pavement, will be used as the area for all
underlying bituminous lifts and will not include the additional quantity needed to construct the 1:1 slope.
403.22.2 2 Final measurement of the completed pavement will not be made except for authorized changes
during construction, or where appreciable errors are found in the contract quantity. Where required, measurement of the pavement complete in place will be made to the nearest 0.1 square yard. The revision or correction will be computed and added to or deducted from the contract quantity.
403.22.3 Alternate Overlay.
403.22.3 1 Field Established Quantity. When bid as an alternate to a Portland cement concrete overlay, the
contractor shall establish the existing roadway profile and set the final overlay profile. The engineer may adjust the final profile as needed. The tons of hot mix asphalt required will be determined by the engineer from the set or adjusted profile. This quantity will be the field established plan quantity. 191403.22.3.2 Overlay Measurement. Final measurement of the completed pavement will be based on the field established plan quantity except for authorized changes during construction. The revision or correction will be computed and added to or deducted from the contract quantity. Measurement of the pavement complete in place will be made to the nearest 0.1 ton.
403.22.4 Pavement Testing. The finished courses shall have the nominal thickness shown on the plans. Tests
will be conducted to ensure that each course is being constructed to proper thickness, composition and density. The contractor shall cut samples from any layer of the compacted mixture at locations designated by the engineer. QA samples shall be cut and delivered to the engineer no later than the end of the next day following the laydown operation. If the samples are not cut and delivered as stated, the asphaltic laydown operation may be suspended and a deduction of 5 percent per day of the contract unit price of the representative material may be applied, until samples are cut and delivered to the engineer. Samples may be obtained by either sawing or drilling 4-inch minimum diameter cores. Each sawed sample shall consist of a single piece of the pavement of the size designated by the engineer, but no larger than 12 inches square.
403.22.4 1 Pavement Thickness. Lift thickness may be determined by the average thickness of cores taken for
density measurements for each lot. Total thickness samples for new full depth asphalt pavements shall be obtained after all bituminous construction is completed on the project and shall be taken at locations specified by the engineer. For the purpose of determining the constructed thickness of full depth pavement, cores shall be taken at random intervals in each traffic lane at the rate of one core per 1000 feet or increment thereof, or at any other locations as may be determined by the engineer and measured in accordance with AASHTO T 148. Sections of any asphaltic concrete determined to be 0.5 inches or more, less than the thickness shown on the plans, shall be corrected by the contractor. No payment will be made for any costs incurred by the contractor in correcting pavement deficient in thickness. Each core is representative of the pavement thickness for a distance extending one-half the distance to the next core, measured along centerline, or in the case of a beginning or ending core, the distance will extend to the end of the pavement.
403.22.4 2 Surface Restoration. The surface from which samples have been taken, including those for density
measurements, shall be restored by the contractor with the mixture then being produced no later than the next day of plant operation, if construction is still active. If bituminous construction has been completed, the surface from which samples have been taken shall be restored within 48 hours with an approved commercial mixture or with cold patch mixtures acceptable to the engineer.
403.23 Basis of Payment.
403.23.1 Aggregate Variation. Due to possible variations in the specific gravity of the aggregates, the tonnage
of mixture used may vary from the proposal quantities. No adjustment in contract unit price will be made because of such variation.
403.23.2 Compacted Samples. Payment for obtaining and delivering samples of compacted mixture from the
pavement and replacing the surface will be made per sample at the fixed price specified in Sec 109. No direct payment will be made for samples taken for QC testing.
403.23.3 Payment for Pavement Repairs (Blow-ups). Payment for repairing blow-ups will be made in
accordance with Sec 104.
403.23.4 Smoothness Adjustment. The contract unit price for all mixes, except wedge or level course, will be
adjusted in accordance with Sec 610.5. The contract unit prices for asphaltic concrete pavement will be considered full compensation for all materials entering into the construction of the pavement and for the cost of the smoothness testing and correction.
403.23.5 Tensile Strength Retained Adjustment. The contract unit price of each 10,000 tons or fraction
thereof for all mixtures shall be adjusted based on TSR according to the following: TSR Percent of Contract Price 90% and above 103 75-89% 100 70-74% 98 19265-69% 97 <65% Remove
403.23.6 Density Adjustment. Pay adjustments due to longitudinal joint density will apply to the full width of
the lane paved. The average of joint cores from each lot will determine specification compliance. Adjustments will be in accordance with Sec 403.23.7.4.1(b). If payment reductions are necessary, the lower adjusted contract unit price of the PWL or unconfined joint density adjustment will apply. Adjustments due to joint density will apply to the lot from which the cores are obtained.
403.23.7 Percent Within Limits. PWL will be based on the mean, standard deviation and quality index of each
lot's test results. The upper PWL (PWLu) and lower PWL (PWL1) is determined from the table in Sec 502.15.8. Total percent within limits, PWLt, is: PWLt = (PWLu + PWL1) - 100. The mean is: xa = (∑xi)/n Where: xa = Average of the individual values being considered ∑ xi = The summation of all the individual values being considered n = The number of individual values under consideration The Standard Deviation is: s = (∑(xi - xa)2/(n - 1))1/2 The Upper Quality Index is: Qu = (USL - xa)/s The Lower Quality Index is: Q1 = (xa - LSL)/s Where: Qu = Upper Quality Index Q1 = Lower Quality Index USL = Pay Factor Item Upper Spec Limit LSL = Pay Factor Item Lower Spec Limit
403.23.7 1 Quality Level Analysis. The engineer will make the QLA no more than 24 hours after receipt of the
contractor's test results, by determining the PWLt for each designated pay factor item.
403.23.7 1.1 Acceptance. The contractor's test results will be used when applicable to determine the PWL,
provided the contractor's QC tests and the engineer's QA tests compare favorably, and provided the engineer's inspection and monitoring activities indicate the contractor is following the approved QC Plan.
403.23.7 1.2 Comparison. Favorable comparison will be obtained when the engineer's QA test results on a
production sample are within two standard deviations, or one-half the specification tolerance, whichever is greater, from the mean of the contractor's test results for that particular lot.
403.23.7 1.3 Outliers. No test result shall be discarded, except individual test results on a lot basis may be
checked for an outlier in accordance with the statistic T in ASTM E 178, at a significance level of 5 percent. If an outlier is found, material from the retained QA sample may be tested, in the presence of the engineer, to determine a replacement test value. The replacement test value shall be used in the PWL determination.
403.23.7 1.4 Roadway/Shoulder Lots. For the purpose of QLA, mixture placed on the traveled way and placed
on the traveled way and shoulders integrally, shall be accounted for in a regular lot/sublot routine. Mixture placed on shoulders only shall be accounted for in a shoulder lot/sublot routine.
403.23.7 1.5 Random Sampling. For the purpose of QLA, all mixture placed on the roadway shall be subject to
random testing, except mixture placed within 6 inches of an unconfined longitudinal joint shall not be subject to evaluation. Random samples taken in the same day may be separated by 200 tons.
403.23.7 2 Pay Factors. The total pay factor (PFT) for each lot will be equal to the weighted sum of the pay
factors (PF) for each pay factor item for each lot, and is determined as follows: PFT = + (0.25) PFdensity + (0.25) PFAC + (0.25) PFVMA + (0.25) PFVa 193The PFT for each lot, on the shoulder or otherwise when the density pay factor is not directly included, will be equal to the weighted sum of the PF for each pay factor item for each lot, and will be determined as follows: PFT = + (0.3333) PFAC + (0.3333) PFVMA + (0.3333) PFVa The PF for each pay factor item for each lot will be based on the PWLt of each pay factor item of each lot and will be determined as follows: When PWLt is greater than or equal to 70: PF = 0.5 PWLt + 55 When PWLt is less than 70: PF = 2 PWLt - 50
403.23.7 2.1 Density Pay Factor. The theoretical maximum specific gravity of the mixture, as determined for
each sublot and the bulk specific gravity of no less than one core from each sublot, will be used to perform the QLA for the percent of theoretical maximum density. Thick cores required to be cut in half in accordance with Sec 403.15.4 shall effectively double the number of sublots for cores. When density is not used as a pay factor, additional adjustment of the contract unit price will be based on the table in Sec 403.23.7.4.1(b).
403.23.7 2.2 Asphalt Content Pay Factor. The QLA will be performed using the asphalt content test results
from each lot.
403.23.7 2.3 Voids in the Mineral Aggregate and Air Voids Pay Factor. Two gyratory specimens shall be
compacted for each sublot and the average of the two specimens will be used to calculate the volumetrics of the sublot. The VMA, VFA, and air voids shall be determined from the gyratory compacted specimens. The VMA and air voids for the QLA shall be those calculated using the combined bulk specific gravity of the aggregate as listed on the approved job mix formula, the average bulk specific gravity of the gyratory compacted specimens and the theoretical maximum specific gravity of the mixture determined for the sublot of material. The aggregate content used for the calculation shall be that determined from field asphalt content testing for that sublot.
403.23.7 3 Removal of Material. All lots of material with a PFT less than 50.0 shall be removed and replaced
with acceptable material by the contractor. Any sublot of material with a percent of theoretical maximum density of less than 90.0 percent or greater than 98.0 percent shall be removed and replaced with acceptable material by the contractor. For SMA mixtures, any sublot of material with a percent of theoretical maximum density of less than 92.0 percent shall be removed and replaced with acceptable material by the contractor. Any sublot of material with air voids in the compacted specimens less than 2.5 percent shall be removed and replaced with acceptable material by the contractor. No additional payment will be made for such removal and replacement. The replaced material will be tested at the frequencies listed in Sec 403.19. Pay for the material will be determined in accordance with the applicable portions of Sec 403.23 based on the replacement material.

502.10 Material Acceptance. Acceptance will be based on the following criteria being met:
502.10.1 Lot Definition. A lot shall be the surface area placed in a single day. Each lot shall be divided into no
less than four or more than six sublots of equal surface area. For high daily production rates exceeding 7,500 square yards per day, the contractor may choose to divide the day’s production into two equal lots consisting of no less than four or more than six sublots each. The contractor shall notify the engineer of the size of the sublot or of the decision to divide a day’s production into two equal lots prior to taking any core samples. When a day’s production involves less than 600 square yards, combine the following day’s or days’ production to reach 600 square yards and treat as a single lot, except while completing a particular mix design or project, in which case combine with the previous day’s production and treat as a single lot. If a project has less than 7,500 square yards of a particular mix type, the lot will be defined as the plan quantity shown in the contract documents.
502.10.2 Sampling. One QC sample shall be taken for each sublot and a minimum of one QA sample shall be
taken per lot. A sample shall be taken from the finished concrete consisting of a 4-inch diameter core for concrete bases or pavements less than 12 inches thick and a 6-inch diameter core for concrete bases or pavements 12 inches or greater. Sampling locations will be determined by the engineer using random sampling procedures in accordance with ASTM D 3665.
502.10.3 Coring. Cores shall be taken in accordance with AASHTO T 24. Cores shall not be taken until a
minimum compressive strength of 3,000 psi has been attained. Cores shall be neatly cut with a core drill.

Cores shall be 4 inch in diameter. Location of coring will be determined by the engineer using random sampling procedures in accordance with ASTM D 3665.
502.10.4 Quality Level Analysis. Compressive strength and thickness shall be evaluated for acceptance on a
lot-by-lot basis using a Quality Level Analysis (QLA). The QLA will consider the variability (standard deviation) of the material and the testing procedures, as well as the average (mean) value of the test results to calculate the percentage of material that is above the lower specification tolerance limit (LSL) for compressive strength and thickness.
502.10.4 1 Determine Quality Index. The Percent Within Limits (PWL) will be based on the mean, standard
deviation and quality index of each lot's test results as follows:
502.10.4 2 Determine Percent Within limits. The upper (PWLU) and lower (PWLL) will be determined from
Table I. Total percent within limits is: PWLt = (PWLU + PWLL) - 100. For thickness and compressive strength in this specification, PWLU shall be 100.
502.10.4 3 Utilizing Quality Control Test Results. The engineer will make the Quality Level Analysis (QLA)
within 24 hours after receipt of the contractor's test results, by determining the PWLt for each designated pay factor item. The contractor's test results will be used when applicable to determine the PWL, provided the contractor's QC tests and the engineer's QA tests compare favorably, and provided the engineer's inspection and monitoring activities indicate the contractor is following the approved QC Plan.
502.10.4 4 Material Rendered Unfit. The engineer may at any time reject and require the contractor to dispose
of any batch of concrete mixture which is rendered unfit for use due to contamination, segregation, improper slump or improper entrained air content. Such rejection may be based on only visual inspection. In the event of such rejection, the contractor may take a representative sample of the rejected material in the presence of the engineer, and if demonstrated in the laboratory in the presence of the engineer that such material was erroneously rejected, payment will be made for the material at the contract unit price.

wire comb or other approved texturing device which will produce a bondable surface acceptable to the engineer.
505.10.6 2 On existing concrete decks with existing wearing surfaces, the wearing surface shall be removed in
accordance with Sec 216. On existing concrete decks without existing wearing surfaces, the surface shall be scarified in accordance with Sec 216.
505.10.6 3 For non-hydro demolition projects, the textured or scarified deck shall be sand or shot blasted
followed by an air blast. The sand or shot blast shall remove all dirt, oil and other foreign material, as well as any unsound concrete or laitance from the surface and edges against which new concrete is to be placed. The compressor shall be equipped to prevent oil in the air supply. That portion of the curb and previously placed wearing surfaces against which new concrete is to be placed shall be sand or shot blasted. Any loose or foreign material detected on the concrete surface prior to placement of the wearing surface shall be removed by sand, shot or air blasting. Clean-up and disposal of blast material shall be in accordance with Sec 202.3.1.3. The concrete surface may require retexturing where penetration of foreign material is evident. No contamination of the retextured or scarified concrete surface will be permitted.
505.10.6 4 For hydro demolition projects, total surface hydro demolition shall be performed in accordance with
Sec 216 and the following additional surface preparation. 258505.10.6.4.1 All areas of the deck, where further removal of concrete was performed with pneumatic hammering after the hydro demolition, shall be thoroughly sand or shot blasted to remove any loose material and micro-cracking. Clean-up and disposal of blast material shall be in accordance with Sec 202.3.1.3.
505.10.6 4.2 After completion of sand or shot blasting and associated clean-up of debris, the entire deck surface
shall be thoroughly cleaned by a minimum 7000 psi pressure water blasting to remove all debris and slurry residue within 24 hours prior to wearing surface placement begins. Water blasting shall continue until the run- off water from cleaning flows clear.
505.10.6 4.3 After cleaning, the deck surface shall be thoroughly saturated to the point that the surface does not
dry out, and any excess water removed with compressed air. Clean polyethylene sheeting shall then be used to cover the deck completely until such time as the wearing surface is placed. Just prior to placement of the wearing surface, the deck shall be brought to a saturated surface dry (SSD) condition and maintained in a SSD condition throughout the pour, with no ponding of water.
505.10.6 4.4 Any standing water on the deck or in the depressed areas of monolithic deck repair shall be
removed prior to placement of wearing surface material
505.10.6 5 To assure that the thickness of the concrete wearing surface above the prepared surface will be as
specified on the plans, the clearance shall be checked in the following manner before concrete is placed. A filler block having a thickness 1/8 inch less than the wearing surface thickness shall be attached to the bottom of the screed. With screed guides in place, the screed shall be passed over the area to be concreted. Where the intended clearance does not allow use of this method, a stringline or other means shall be used, subject to approval from the engineer. All existing concrete shall be removed that does not have sufficient clearance.
505.10.7 Finishing Equipment.
505.10.7 1 The finishing machine shall be designed for striking off and finishing low slump concrete. The
machine shall be mechanically powered to operate forward and reverse in a smooth manner, under positive control of the operator. The basic machine shall be of a width to finish a basic 12-foot width of wearing surface and shall be adjustable for wider placements. The finishing machine shall be designed to allow the screeds to be extended with bolted units to match the extension of the basic unit. The drive wheels shall be of the type that may be replaced with solid rubber wheels to permit travel upon previously completed lanes of wearing surface when striking off the abutting lanes.
505.10.7 2 The finishing machine shall be equipped with two oscillating transverse screeds. The screeds shall
oscillate in a straight line. A swinging pendulum stoke shall not be used. The front screed shall vibrate uniformly for the full length of the screed. The vibrators shall be placed such that the screed vibrates efficiently and the frequency of the vibrators shall be controlled by the operator from the console to achieve the required density.
505.10.7 2.1 Screeds shall be held positive to the machine with rollers and, unless otherwise approved by the
engineer, shall be equipped with screed guides such as to control the profile grade of the finished wearing surface. The screed stroke shall be synchronized to speeds not exceeding 50 strokes per minute, with infinite variable control from the console. The screeds shall be capable of vertical lift when the machine is reversed for travel, and controlled for downward direction to the finishing position to permit feathering of the screeds to any previously finished surface.
505.10.7 2.2 The bottom face of the screeds shall be at least 5 inches wide, with an effective pressure to produce
no less than 75 psf. The bottom face of the screeds shall have a turned up leading edge to prevent tearing of the screeded surface and shall be adjustable for tilt and crown. The screed lengths shall be such to produce positive strike off and density of the concrete for at least 6 inches beyond the line where the saw cut for the longitudinal joint is to be made and to within one inch of the curb reinforcing steel or face of any curb barrier already in place.
505.10.7 3 The machine shall be equipped with a mechanically-powered adjustable auger positioned in front of
the lead screed. The strike-off shall travel back and forth for the full width to be screeded and shall be properly designed to meter the concrete to the screeds. 259505.10.7.4 Heavy duty support rails shall be used to support the finishing machine. Support rails shall be adjustable and the rail shall not deflect more than 1/32 inch between adjustable supports. Support rails shall be placed outside the area and parallel to axis of the area to be concreted. Support rails shall extend a sufficient distance beyond the end of the deck to allow the finishing machine to be completely removed from the deck surface such that hand finishing may proceed without interruption. The support rails shall be set to produce the final profile grade of the surface of the wearing surface. A hold-down device shot into the concrete will not be permitted unless the concrete is to be subsequently resurfaced. The proposed method of anchoring the support rails shall be submitted to the engineer for approval.
505.10.8 Placing and Finishing Concrete.
505.10.8 1 A lateral support for the concrete such as 2 by 4-inch lumber attached to the deck will be required at

into the areas within approximately 12 inches of curbs.
505.10.8 13 After texturing the concrete surface, but before applying the wet cure, all vertical joints with the
adjacent concrete shall be sealed by painting with thinned grout consisting of equal parts cement, sand and sufficient water for the mixture to be the consistency of paint.
505.10.8 14 After the joint painting is completed, the freshly placed lane and joint shall be promptly covered
with a single layer of clean, wet burlap. Care shall be exercised to ensure that the wet burlap is well drained and that the burlap is placed as soon as the surface will support the burlap without deformation.
505.10.8 15 The wet cure shall be applied within 30 minutes after the concrete has been placed on the deck,
except when the surface will be excessively marred by doing so, as determined by the engineer. If the concrete requires refinishing because of failure to meet density requirements, the time will be extended 15 minutes. Failure to apply wet cure within the required time will be cause for rejecting the work affected. Surface concrete in the rejected area shall be removed and replaced by the contractor at the contractor's expense.
505.10.8 16 The surface shall receive a wet cure of at least 72 hours.
505.10.8 17 After placement and cure of the low slump concrete, the finished deck will be tested to detect
unbonded areas.

as specified herein.
505.30.8 1 The cleaned areas to receive the wearing surface shall be thoroughly and continuously wetted with
water at least three hours before placement of the wearing surface is started, then covered with polyethylene sheeting until the time of placement. Any accumulations of water shall be dispersed or removed prior to applying the wearing surface.
505.30.8 2 Hand vibrators shall be used in areas of monolithic deck repair in the deck below the bottom of the
planned deck wearing surface thickness where concrete is being placed around reinforcement, deeper areas within the pour, and along curb lines and construction joints. Deep areas shall be filled in advance during the wearing surface pour so the material stiffens enough that it will not roll back under the paving screed. 267505.30.8.3 Since silica fume concrete produces very little bleed water, the engineer may require one or both of the following procedures to maintain a surface film until the burlap is placed.
505.30.8 3.1 A commercially available evaporative retarder may be used judiciously with a misting device
during the finishing process until the wet burlap is applied only to prevent the surface of the concrete from drying out. The evaporative retarder shall not be used to increase surface workability.
505.30.8 3.2 Fogging may be done to increase humidity in the area of placement. Any fogging shall be done
with nozzles specifically designed for fogging, with a maximum rate of one gallon per minute per nozzle.
505.30.8 4 The surface shall receive a wet cure for at least 7 days. Time when the ambient temperature is below
45 F will not be counted as cure time. Cure shall be continued until 3,000 psi compressive strength has been attained.
505.30.8 5 The finished deck will be examined for cracking. If cracking is found, the engineer will determine
whether cracking is detrimental, whether remedial surface repairs are needed or whether the wearing surface in the cracked area should be removed and replaced. All remedial surface repairs, removal or replacement shall be done by the contractor at the contractor's expense.

or above 85 F. Concrete placement may begin when the air temperature and deck temperature are 45 F and rising. Concrete shall not be exposed to freezing temperatures until a strength of 3000 psi has been attained. Any concrete damaged by freezing shall be removed and replaced at the contractor's expense.
505.30.10 3 When the weather forecast predicts temperatures of 85 F or higher, the contractor shall schedule
placing and finishing silica fume concrete during hours in which the ambient temperature will be lower than 85
505.30.10 4 Since silica fume concrete may not exhibit bleed water, the probability of plastic shrinkage cracking
is increased. At surface evaporation rates above 0.1 pound per square foot per hour, plastic shrinkage cracking is probable and the contractor shall take precautions such as erecting windbreaks, lowering the mix temperature or delaying operations until ambient temperatures are lower. Fogging the concrete surface will only be permitted as provided for in this specification. Surface evaporation rates may be predicted from mix temperature, air temperature, relative humidity and wind velocity, using Figure 1 of the 1986 revised edition of ACI 308-81, Standard Practice for Curing Concrete.

If either the aggregate or water is heated, the maximum temperature for each shall be 100 F at the time of addition to the mix. Any method of heating during the mixing of concrete may be used provided the heating apparatus will heat the mass uniformly and avoid hot spots which will burn the material. Cement or aggregate containing lumps or crusts of hardened material or frost shall not be used.
505.40.10 7 No vehicle traffic shall be permitted on the latex modified very early strength concrete surface until
the latex modified very early strength concrete has attained a minimum compressive strength of 3200 psi. Compressive strength will be determined by tests conducted in accordance with MoDOT test methods.
505.40.10 8 Concrete shall not be placed adjacent to a parallel surface course which is less than 24 hours old;
however, this restriction will not apply to a continuation of placement in a lane or strip beyond a joint in the same lane or strip.
